Project description:We report the application of size selection of small RNA species isolated from Jjhan cells harboring the human herpesvirus 6A genome. We ammassed >3.4million reads of sequence from three different sources: Normal Brain cell total RNA, Jjhan total RNA and HHV-6A BAC transfected Jjhan total RNA. Sequences were mapped to the HHV-6A Uganda 1102 strain genome (GenBank: X83413.1) with no less than 100% match for reads >20nt and <23nt. The resulting pool of candidates was mapped to the HHV-6A genome. Single pass 36nt sequencing of samples either with or without HHV-6a genomes present.

Project description:In order to understand the effect of HHV-6A reactivation on host cell, U2-OS bone osteosarcoma cells were generated carrying latent HHV-6A genome. These cells were either treated with DMSO (solvent control) or Trichostatin-A (TSA) for viral reactivation. As a control cells carrying no HHV-6A were used and treated similarly. Two biological replicates of each sample were processed for small RNA transcriptomics (small RNAseq). Furthermore, HeLa (cervical epithelial cells) were generated carrying lentiviral insertions of one of the small non-coding RNA from HHV-6A (sncRNA-U14). These cells could be transiently induced for sncRNA-U14 transcription using Doxycycline. HeLa cells having a mock lentiviral backbone was used as a control and was treated similarly. Two biological replicates of each sample were processed for small RNA transcriptomics (small RNAseq).
