Project description:Chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis of CENH3 in the Arabidopsis thaliana accessions Col-0, Ler-0, Cvi-0 and Tanz-1 was performed in order to align reads to PacBio HiFi genome assemblies which contain complete centromere repeat arrays.
Project description:PacBio HiFi sequencing was used to characterize genome-wide DNA base modifications and methylation motifs in Alicyclobacillus acidocaldarius subsp. acidocaldarius strain KCTC 1825 (DSM 446). Base-modification kinetics were mapped to the complete genome assembly and analyzed for m6A and m4C signals. The processed dataset provides per-base modification calls, motif-associated calls, and motif summaries linked to the public genome assembly and SRA run.
Project description:The Periconia genus belongs to the phylum Ascomycota, order Pleosporales, family Periconiaceae. Periconia is widespread in many habitats but little is known about its ecology. Several species produce bioactive molecules, among them, Periconia digitata extracts were shown to be deadly active against the pine wilt nematode. The strain CNCM I-4278, here identified as P. digitata was able to inhibit the plant pathogen Phytophthora parasitica. Since P. digitata has great potential as biocontrol agent and the only other genome available in the Periconiaceae family is that of Periconia macrospinosa, which is quite fragmentary, we generated long-read genomic data for P. digitata. Thanks to the PacBio Hifi sequencing technology, we obtained a high-quality genome with a total length of 38,967,494 bp, represented by 13 haploid chromosomes. The transcriptomic and proteomic data strengthen and support the genome annotation. Besides representing a new reference genome within the Periconiaceae, this work will also contribute in our understanding of the Eukaryotic tree of life. Not least, opens new possibilities to the biotechnological use of the species.

Project description:<p class='ql-align-justify'>Megasphaera hexanoica KCCM 43214T, isolated from cow rumen, is capable of producing medium-chain carboxylic acids such as n-caproate and n-caprylate. In this study, we present a high-quality genome assembly, along with intracellular metabolomic profiling and pangenomic analysis. Illumina sequencing generated 2.3 Mbp from 15,293,634 reads with a GC content of 49.5%, while PacBio HiFi sequencing produced 331.5 Mbp across 45,266 reads, with an average read length of 7,323 bp and a HiFi read N50 of 8,214 bp. Hybrid assembly of short and long reads resulted in a single 2.88 Mbp contig, containing 2,075-2,083 unique genes. A genome-scale metabolic model was constructed, to evaluate its metabolic capabilities under specific growth conditions. Intracellular metabolomic analysis of cells grown in fructose medium and lactate medium revealed key metabolic activities associated with chain elongation. Pangenomic analysis across nine annotated genomes identified 6,721 orthologous gene using OrthoMCL, emphasizing the genetic and functional diversity within the Megasphaera genus. This dataset offers valuable insights into the metabolism and biotechnological potential of M. hexanoica KCCM 43214T.</p>
Project description:Primary objectives: The primary objective is to investigate circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) via deep sequencing for mutation detection and by whole genome sequencing for copy number analyses before start (baseline) with regorafenib and at defined time points during administration of regorafenib for treatment efficacy in colorectal cancer patients in terms of overall survival (OS).
