Project description:Long-read RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) is a powerful technology for transcriptome analysis, but the relatively low throughput of current long-read sequencing platforms limits transcript coverage. We present TEQUILA-seq, a versatile, easy-to-implement, and low-cost method for targeted long-read RNA-seq. TEQUILA-seq can be broadly used for targeted sequencing of full-length transcripts in diverse biomedical research settings.
Project description:Revertant mosaicism (RM) is a phenomenon in which inherited mutations are spontaneously corrected in somatic cells. RM occurs in some congenital skin diseases, although genetic validation of RM in clinically revertant skin has been challenging, especially when homologous recombination (HR) is responsible for RM. We introduced Nanopore Cas9-targeted sequencing (nCATS) for identifying HR in clinically revertant skin.
Project description:Evaluation of short-read-only, long-read-only, and hybrid assembly approaches on metagenomic samples demonstrating how they affect gene and protein prediction which is relevant for downstream functional analyses. For a human gut microbiome sample, we use complementary metatranscriptomic, and metaproteomic data to evaluate the metagenomic-based protein predictions.
Project description:This dataset contains Xdrop followed by oxford nanopore long read sequencing performed in target tRNA gene deletion (t8) and intergenic region deletion (i50) clones in HepG2 . By applying de novo assembly based approach to Xdrop-LRS data, we identified Cas9-induced on-target genomic alteration.
