Cerulean: A hybrid assembly using high throughput short and long reads

open access: yes, 2013
Genome assembly using high throughput data with short reads, arguably, remains an unresolvable task in repetitive genomes, since when the length of a repeat exceeds the read length, it becomes difficult to unambiguously connect the flanking regions.

EDNRB‐dependent endothelin signaling reduces proliferation and promotes proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition in gliomas

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Glioma cells mainly express the endothelin receptor EDNRB, while EDNRA is restricted to a perivascular tumor subpopulation. Endothelin signaling reduces glioma cell proliferation while promoting migration and a proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition associated with poor prognosis. This pathway activates Ca2+, K+, ERK, and STAT3 signalings and is regulated

Stranded Mapping from Long Reads v2

open access: yes, 2018
This protocol demonstrates how to convert raw long reads produced using a strand-specific sequencing protocol (e.g. ONT's strand-switching protocol) into strand-specific mapped reads. The general ides is to use LAST to identify the adapter orientation relative to the genome, and then use that information to split BAM files up and recombine them to ...

Engineered extracellular vesicles enriched with the miR‐214/199a cluster enhance the efficacy of chemotherapy in ovarian cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Loss of the miR‐214/199a cluster is associated with recurrence in ovarian cancer. Engineered small extracellular vesicles (m214‐sEVs) elevate miR‐214‐3p/miR‐199a‐5p in tumor cells, suppress β‐catenin, TLR4, and YKT6 signaling, reprogram tumor‐derived sEV cargo, reduce chemoresistance and migration, and enhance carboplatin efficacy and survival in ...

Long-read technologies identify a hidden LINE-1/ERV1 insertion in IQCB1 as causative variant for Senior-Løken syndrome

open access: yesnpj Genomic Medicine
Senior-Løken syndrome is a rare ciliopathy characterized by retinal dystrophy and nephronophthisis. This autosomal recessive inherited disease is caused by pathogenic variants in several genes, including IQCB1.

IMPDH inhibition enhances cytarabine efficacy in SAMHD1‐expressing leukaemia cells via guanine nucleotide depletion

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cytarabine is a key therapy for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), but its efficacy is limited by the dNTPase SAMHD1, which hydrolyses its active metabolite. Screening nucleotide biosynthesis inhibitors revealed that IMPDH inhibitors selectively sensitise SAMHD1‐proficient AML cells to cytarabine.

De novo assembly of middle-sized genome using MinION and Illumina sequencers

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2018
Background The plastid acquisition by secondary endosymbiosis is a driving force for the algal evolution, and the comparative genomics was required to examine the genomic change of symbiont.

Somatic mutational landscape in von Hippel–Lindau familial hemangioblastoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The causes of central nervous system (CNS) hemangioblastoma in Von Hippel–Lindau (vHL) disease are unclear. We used Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) on familial hemangioblastoma to investigate events that underlie tumor development. Our findings suggest that VHL loss creates a permissive environment for tumor formation, while additional alterations ...

Accelerating 3D genomics data analysis with Microcket

open access: yesCommunications Biology
The three-dimensional (3D) organization of genome is fundamental to cell biology. To explore 3D genome, emerging high-throughput approaches have produced billions of sequencing reads, which is challenging and time-consuming to analyze.
