Project description:The goal of this study was to compare next-generation sequencing (NGS)-derived liver and pectoralis major transcriptome profilings (RNA-seq) of chicken fed control diet to treatment birds fed methionine restriction diet. We sequenced mRNA from 10 Gallus gallus males fed either control (L-Methionine) or L-Methionine-deficient diet (5 control and 5 treatment) from 3-5 weeks of age. We sequenced both liver and the pectoralis major muscle.
Project description:Here, we present new functional genomic resources for the amphipod crustacean Parhyale hawaiensis, facilitating the exploration of gene regulatory evolution using this emerging research organism. We use Omni-ATAC-Seq, an improved form of the Assay for Transposase-Accessible Chromatin coupled with next-generation sequencing (ATAC-Seq), to identify accessible chromatin genome-wide across a broad time course of Parhyale embryonic development. This time course encompasses many major morphological events, including segmentation, body regionalization, gut morphogenesis, and limb development. In addition, we use short- and long-read RNA-Seq to generate an improved Parhyale genome annotation, enabling deeper classification of identified regulatory elements. We leverage a variety of bioinformatic tools to discover differential accessibility, predict nucleosome positioning, infer transcription factor binding, cluster peaks based on accessibility dynamics, classify biological functions, and correlate gene expression with accessibility.
Project description:Most proteogenomic approaches for mapping single amino acid polymorphisms (SAPs) require construction of a sample-specific database containing protein variants predicted from the next-generation sequencing (NGS) data. We present a new strategy for direct SAP detection without relying on NGS data. Among the 348 putative SAP peptides identified in an industrial yeast strain, 85.6% of SAP sites were validated by genomic sequencing.
Project description:Here, we introduce a method termed DNA O-MAP, which uses programmable peroxidase-conjugated oligonucleotide probes to biotinylate nearby proteins. We show that DNA O-MAP can be coupled with sample multiplexed quantitative proteomics and next-generation sequencing to quantify DNA-protein and DNA-DNA interactions at specific genomic loci.
Project description:Next Generation Sequencing in cancer: a feasibility study in France to assess sample circuit and to perform analyzes within a limited time.
Project description:A novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is the causative agent of COVID-19 and continues to be a global health challenge. To understand viral disease biology, we have carried out proteo-genomic analysis using next generation sequencing (NGS) and mass-spectrometry on nasopharyngeal swabs of COVID-19 patients to examine clinical genome and proteome. Our proteomic analysis, for the first time identified 13 different SARS-CoV-2 proteins from the clinical swabs. Additionally, host proteome analysis revealed several key host proteins to be uniquely expressed in COVID-19 patients. Besides revealing aspects of host-virus pathogenesis, our study opens avenues to develop better diagnostic markers and therapeutic strategies.
