Project description:We describe an application of deep sequencing and de novo assembly of short RNA reads to investigate small interfering (si)RNAs mediated immunity in leaf samples from eight tree taxa naturally occurring in Wytham Woods, Oxfordshire, UK. BLAST search for homologues of contigs in the GenBank identified siRNA populations against a number of RNA viruses and a Ty1-copia retrotransposons in these tree species.

Project description:We used our newly ultra deep sequence data and bioinformatics to re-annotate P. xylostella genome for high confidence miRNAs with the correct 5p and 3p arm features. Furthermore, the whole genome was screened to identify potential miRNA binding sites using three target-predicting algorithms. Totally, 203 mature miRNAs were annotated, including 33 novel miRNAs.
Project description:We used ultra deep sequencing of MnaseI trated cells to faithfully position nucleosomes before and after treatment with TGFB growth factor for 1h in HepG2-cells.
Project description:Chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by ultra-high throughput (UHTP) sequencing (ChIP-seq) is a powerful tool to establish protein-DNA interactions genome-wide, and the primary limitation of its broad application at present is the often-limited access to sequencers. Here, we report a protocol, Mab-Seq, to generate preliminary quality evaluations and single-chromosome data for deep-sequencing libraries. We show that commercially available genomic microarrays can be used to maximize the efficiency of library creation, quickly generate preliminary data on a chromosomal scale, and help establish the depth to which novel libraries will require deep sequencing.
