Project description:Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) has emerged today as an ultimate typing tool to characterize Listeria monocytogenes outbreaks. However, data analysis and interlaboratory comparability of WGS data are still challenging for most public health laboratories. Therefore, we have developed and evaluated a new L. monocytogenes typing scheme based on genome-wide gene-by-gene comparisons (core genome multilocus the sequence typing [cgMLST]) to allow for a unique typing nomenclature. Initially, we determined the breadth of the L. monocytogenes population based on MLST data with a Bayesian approach. Based on the genome sequence data of representative isolates for the whole population, cgMLST target genes were defined and reappraised with 67 L. monocytogenes isolates from two outbreaks and serotype reference strains. The Bayesian population analysis generated five L. monocytogenes groups. Using all available NCBI RefSeq genomes (n = 36) and six additionally sequenced strains, all genetic groups were covered. Pairwise comparisons of these 42 genome sequences resulted in 1,701 cgMLST targets present in all 42 genomes with 100% overlap and ≥90% sequence similarity. Overall, ≥99.1% of the cgMLST targets were present in 67 outbreak and serotype reference strains, underlining the representativeness of the cgMLST scheme. Moreover, cgMLST enabled clustering of outbreak isolates with ≤10 alleles difference and unambiguous separation from unrelated outgroup isolates. In conclusion, the novel cgMLST scheme not only improves outbreak investigations but also enables, due to the availability of the automatically curated cgMLST nomenclature, interlaboratory exchange of data that are crucial, especially for rapid responses during transsectorial outbreaks.

Project description:The environmental bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa, particularly multidrug-resistant clones, is often associated with nosocomial infections and outbreaks. Today, core genome multilocus sequence typing (cgMLST) is frequently applied to delineate sporadic cases from nosocomial transmissions. However, until recently, no cgMLST scheme for a standardized typing of P. aeruginosa was available. To establish a novel cgMLST scheme for P. aeruginosa, we initially determined the breadth of the P. aeruginosa population based on MLST data with a Bayesian approach (BAPS). Using genomic data of representative isolates for the whole population and all 12 serogroups, we extracted target genes and further refined them using a random data set of 1,000 P. aeruginosa genomes. Subsequently, we investigated reproducibility and discriminatory ability with repeatedly sequenced isolates and isolates from well-defined outbreak scenarios, respectively, and compared clustering applying two recently published cgMLST schemes. BAPS generated seven P. aeruginosa groups. To cover these and all serogroups, 15 reference strains were used to determine genes common in all strains. After refinement with the data set of 1,000 genomes, the cgMLST scheme consisted of 3,867 target genes, which are representative of the P. aeruginosa population and highly reproducible using biological replicates. We finally evaluated the scheme by reanalyzing two published outbreaks where the authors used single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) typing. In both cases, cgMLST was concordant with the previous SNP results and the results of the two other cgMLST schemes. In conclusion, the highly reproducible novel P. aeruginosa cgMLST scheme facilitates outbreak investigations due to the publicly available cgMLST nomenclature.

Project description:At present, the most used methods for Klebsiella pneumoniae subtyping are multilocus sequence typing (MLST) and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). However, the discriminatory power of MLST could not meet the need for distinguishing outbreak and non-outbreak isolates and the PFGE is time-consuming and labor-intensive. A core genome multilocus sequence typing (cgMLST) scheme for whole-genome sequence-based typing of K. pneumoniae was developed for solving the disadvantages of these traditional molecular subtyping methods. Firstly, we used the complete genome of K. pneumoniae strain HKUOPLC as the reference genome and 907 genomes of K. pneumoniae download from NCBI database as original genome dataset to determine cgMLST target genes. A total of 1,143 genes were retained as cgMLST target genes. Secondly, we used 26 K. pneumoniae strains from a nosocomial infection outbreak to evaluate the cgMLST scheme. cgMLST enabled clustering of outbreak strains with <10 alleles difference and unambiguous separation from unrelated outgroup strains. Moreover, cgMLST revealed that there may be several sub-clones of epidemic ST11 clone. In conclusion, the novel cgMLST scheme not only showed higher discriminatory power compared with PFGE and MLST in outbreak investigations but also showed ability to reveal more population structure characteristics than MLST.

Project description:We have employed whole genome sequencing to define and evaluate a core genome multilocus sequence typing (cgMLST) scheme for Acinetobacter baumannii. To define a core genome we downloaded a total of 1,573 putative A. baumannii genomes from NCBI as well as representative isolates belonging to the eight previously described international A. baumannii clonal lineages. The core genome was then employed against a total of fifty-three carbapenem-resistant A. baumannii isolates that were previously typed by PFGE and linked to hospital outbreaks in eight German cities. We defined a core genome of 2,390 genes of which an average 98.4% were called successfully from 1,339 A. baumannii genomes, while Acinetobacter nosocomialis, Acinetobacter pittii, and Acinetobacter calcoaceticus resulted in 71.2%, 33.3%, and 23.2% good targets, respectively. When tested against the previously identified outbreak strains, we found good correlation between PFGE and cgMLST clustering, with 0-8 allelic differences within a pulsotype, and 40-2,166 differences between pulsotypes. The highest number of allelic differences was between the isolates representing the international clones. This typing scheme was highly discriminatory and identified separate A. baumannii outbreaks. Moreover, because a standardised cgMLST nomenclature is used, the system will allow inter-laboratory exchange of data.

Project description:Serratia marcescens is an opportunistic bacterial pathogen. It is notorious for its increasing antimicrobial resistance and its potential to cause outbreaks of colonization and infections, predominantly in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). There, its spread requires rapid infection control response. To understand its spread, detailed molecular typing is key. We present a whole-genome multilocus sequence typing (wgMLST) method for S. marcescens Using a set of 299 publicly available whole-genome sequences (WGS), we developed an initial wgMLST system consisting of 9,377 gene loci. This included 1,455 loci occurring in all reference genomes and 7,922 accessory loci. This closed system was validated using three geographically diverse collections of S. marcescens consisting of 111 clinical isolates implicated in nosocomial dissemination events in three hospitals. The validation procedure showed a full match between epidemiological data and the wgMLST analyses. We set the cutoff value for epidemiological (non)relatedness at 20 different alleles, though for the majority of outbreak-clustered isolates, this difference was limited to 4 alleles. This shows that the wgMLST system for S. marcescens provides prospects for successful future monitoring for the epidemiological containment of this opportunistic pathogen.

Project description:Purpose: This study uses a high-throughput glycan microarray to develop a novel method to assign ABO blood type. The method will then be applied to samples from patients treated with PROSTVAC to determine if blood type correlates with survival Results: Many blood group A and B antigens correlate with blood type. Blood typing is best achieved using a combination of 10 signals Conclusion: ABO blood type can be determined with greater than 97% accuracy using only 4 microliters of serum.
