Chromosomal-level assembly of the Asian Seabass genome using long sequence reads and multi-layered scaffolding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We report here the ~670 Mb genome assembly of the Asian seabass (Lates calcarifer), a tropical marine teleost. We used long-read sequencing augmented by transcriptomics, optical and genetic mapping along with shared synteny from closely related fish ...

Comparative genetics of Enterococcus faecalis intestinal tissue isolates before and after surgery in a rat model of colon anastomosis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
We have recently demonstrated that collagenolytic Enterococcus faecalis plays a key and causative role in the pathogenesis of anastomotic leak, an uncommon but potentially lethal complication characterized by disruption of the intestinal wound following ...

Long-read technologies identify a hidden inverted duplication in a family with choroideremia

open access: yesHGG Advances, 2021
Summary: The lack of molecular diagnoses in rare genetic diseases can be explained by limitations of current standard genomic technologies. Upcoming long-read techniques have complementary strengths to overcome these limitations, with a particular ...

Optical genome mapping in an atypical Pelizaeus-Merzbacher prenatal challenge

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2023
Pathogenic genetic variants represent a challenge in prenatal counseling, especially when clinical presentation in familial carriers is atypical. We describe a prenatal case involving a microarray-detected duplication of PLP1 which causes X-linked ...

Pericentromeric heterochromatin is hierarchically organized and spatially contacts H3K9me2 islands in euchromatin. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Membraneless pericentromeric heterochromatin (PCH) domains play vital roles in chromosome dynamics and genome stability. However, our current understanding of 3D genome organization does not include PCH domains because of technical challenges associated ...

Genome maps across 26 human populations reveal population-specific patterns of structural variation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Large structural variants (SVs) in the human genome are difficult to detect and study by conventional sequencing technologies. With long-range genome analysis platforms, such as optical mapping, one can identify large SVs (>2 kb) across the genome in ...

SIMBA: a web tool for managing bacterial genome assembly generated by Ion PGM sequencing technology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background The evolution of Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) has considerably reduced the cost per sequenced-base, allowing a significant rise of sequencing projects, mainly in prokaryotes. However, the range of available NGS platforms requires different

Optical mapping approaches to molecular genomics

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Biotechnology, 1997
A variety of physical mapping methods exist for the analysis of nucleic acids or genomes, including hybridization, sequence tagged site mapping, restriction enzyme fingerprinting, radiation hybrid mapping and optical mapping. Single-molecule approaches offer numerous advantages, including very high resolution, small sample size requirements, and ...
