MOTIVATION: Recent studies have shown the potential of using long-read whole-genome sequencing (WGS) approaches and optical mapping (OM) for the detection of clinically relevant structural variants (SVs) in cancer research. Three main long-read WGS platforms are currently in use: Pacific Biosciences (PacBio), Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) and 10x Genomics. Recently, whole-genome OM technology (Bionano Genomics) has been introduced into human diagnostics. Questions remain about the accuracy of these long-read sequencing platforms, how comparable/interchangeable they are when searching for SVs and to what extent they can be replaced or supplemented by OM. Moreover, no tool can effectively compare SVs obtained by OM and WGS. RESULTS: This study compared optical maps of the breast cancer cell line SKBR3 with AnnotSV outputs from WGS platforms. For this purpose, a software tool with comparative and filtering features was developed. The majority of SVs up to a 50 kbp distance variance threshold found by OM were confirmed by all WGS platforms, and ∼99% of translocations and ∼80% of deletions found by OM were confirmed by both PacBio and ONT, with ∼70% being confirmed by 10x Genomics in combination with PacBio and/or ONT. Interestingly, long deletions (>100 kbp) were detected only by 10x Genomics. Regarding insertions, ∼74% was confirmed by PacBio and ONT, but none by 10x Genomics. Inversions and duplications detected by OM were not detected by WGS. Moreover, the tool enabled the confirmation of SVs that overlapped in the same gene(s) and was applied to the filtering of disease-associated SVs.

The strain Clostridium pasteurianum NRRL B-598 is non-type, oxygen tolerant, spore-forming, mesophilic and heterofermentative strain with high hydrogen production and ability of acetone-butanol fermentation (ethanol production being negligible). Here, we present the annotated complete genome sequence of this bacterium, replacing the previous draft genome assembly. The genome consisting of a single circular 6,186,879 bp chromosome with no plasmid was determined using PacBio RSII and Roche 454 sequencing.
Maxicircles of all kinetoplastid flagellates are functional analogs of mitochondrial genome of other eukaryotes. They consist of two distinct parts, called the coding region and the divergent region (DR). The DR is composed of highly repetitive sequences and, as such, remains the least explored segment of a trypanosomatid genome. It is extremely difficult to sequence and assemble, that is why very few full length maxicircle sequences were available until now. Using PacBio data, we assembled 17 complete maxicircles from different species of trypanosomatids. Here we present their large-scale comparative analysis and describe common patterns of DR organization in trypanosomatids.

BACKGROUND: Pikes represent an important genus (Esox) harbouring a pre-duplication karyotype (2n = 2x = 50) of economically important salmonid pseudopolyploids. Here, we have characterized the 5S ribosomal RNA genes (rDNA) in Esox lucius and its closely related E. cisalpinus using cytogenetic, molecular and genomic approaches. Intragenomic homogeneity and copy number estimation was carried out using Illumina reads. The higher-order structure of rDNA arrays was investigated by the analysis of long PacBio reads. Position of loci on chromosomes was determined by FISH. DNA methylation was analysed by methylation-sensitive restriction enzymes. RESULTS: The 5S rDNA loci occupy exclusively (peri)centromeric regions on 30-38 acrocentric chromosomes in both E. lucius and E. cisalpinus. The large number of loci is accompanied by extreme amplification of genes (>20,000 copies), which is to the best of our knowledge one of the highest copy number of rRNA genes in animals ever reported. Conserved secondary structures of predicted 5S rRNAs indicate that most of the amplified genes are potentially functional. Only few SNPs were found in genic regions indicating their high homogeneity while intergenic spacers were more heterogeneous and several families were identified. Analysis of 10-30 kb-long molecules sequenced by the PacBio technology (containing about 40% of total 5S rDNA) revealed that the vast majority (96%) of genes are organised in large several kilobase-long blocks. Dispersed genes or short tandems were less common (4%). The adjacent 5S blocks were directly linked, separated by intervening DNA and even inverted. The 5S units differing in the intergenic spacers formed both homogeneous and heterogeneous (mixed) blocks indicating variable degree of homogenisation between the loci. Both E. lucius and E. cisalpinus 5S rDNA was heavily methylated at CG dinucleotides. CONCLUSIONS: Extreme amplification of 5S rRNA genes in the Esox genome occurred in the absence of significant pseudogenisation suggesting its recent origin and/or intensive homogenisation processes. The dense methylation of units indicates that powerful epigenetic mechanisms have evolved in this group of fish to silence amplified genes. We discuss how the higher-order repeat structures impact on homogenisation of 5S rDNA in the genome.

V současnosti nejsme schopni určit příčiny vzácných geneticky podmíněných nemocí u ~50% případů a počet nově objevovaných kauzálních genů v posledních letech klesá. Naším záměrem je provést integrovanou analýzu genomu, transkriptomu, proteomu a metabolomu k určení genetické diagnózy ve skupině ~40 případů a rodin se vzácným geneticky podmíněným onemocněním, u kterých předchozí cílená klinická, biochemická a genetická vyšetření včetně exomového sekvenování nevedly k diagnóze. Využijeme našich zkušeností s novými technologiemi celogenomového sekvenování (NovaSeq), sekvenování dlouhých fragmentů jednotlivých molekul DNA (Oxford Nanopore, PacBio) a možností korelací genomové informace s výsledky analýz tělních tekutin, tkání, tkáňových kultur a vhodných buněčných modelů. Uplatníme nové bioinformatické nástroje analýzy multi-OMIC dat a nástroje umožňující globální sdílení fenotypových a genomických dat. Cílem je zrychlit poznání doposud nediagnostikovaných vzácných nemocí , zlepšení diagnostické výtěžňosti a zajištění inovativní péče o pacienty s vzácnými nemocemi v České Republice.; The failure to diagnose the cause of a rare genetic disease occurs in ~50% of the cases and the rate of discovery of novel genes and disease-gene relations appears to be declining. We intend to apply multi-OMIC approaches to identify causal genetic defects in ~40 selected cases from our previous studies, in which we have negative results from standard genetic and genomic analyses. We will benefit from our access and experience with new platforms for whole-genome analysis (NovaSeq), single molecule long read length sequencing (Oxford Nanopore, PacBio) and our ability to correlate genomic information with transcriptome, proteome and metabolome analyses of affected tissues, body fluids and patient cell-derived models. We will also apply new bioinformatics tools allowing effective integration of OMIC data and use tools enabling exchange of phenotypic and genomic information via shared platforms and tools worldwide. The ultimate goal is to accelerate understanding of these unsolved diseases, improve diagnostic yield, and deliver innovative care for rare genetic diseases in Czech Republic.
Pythium oligandrum is a soil born free living oomycete able to parasitize fungi and oomycetes prey, including important plant and animals pathogens. Pythium oligandrum can colonize endophytically the root tissues of diverse plants where it induces plant defenses. Here we report the first long-read genome sequencing of a P. oligandrum strain sequenced by PacBio technology. Sequencing of genomic DNA loaded onto six SMRT cells permitted the acquisition of 913,728 total reads resulting in 112X genome coverage. The assembly and polishing of the genome sequence yielded180 contigs (N50 = 1.3 Mb; L50 = 12). The size of the genome assembly is 41.9 Mb with a longest contig of 2.7 Mb and 15,007 predicted protein-coding genes among which 95.25% were supported by RNAseq data, thus constituting a new Pythium genome reference. This data will facilitate genomic comparisons of Pythium species that are commensal, beneficial or pathogenic on plant, or parasitic on fungi and oomycete to identify key genetic determinants underpinning their diverse lifestyles. In addition comparison with plant pathogenic or zoopathogenic species will illuminate genomic adaptations for pathogenesis toward widely diverse hosts.
BACKGROUND: the co-production of carbapenemases and mcr-genes represents a worrisome event in the treatment of Enterobacteriaceae infections. The aim of the study was to characterize the genomic features of two clinical Enterobacter cloacae complex (ECC) isolates, co-producing VIM and MCR enzymes, in Italy. METHODS: species identification and antibiotic susceptibility profiling were performed using MALDI-TOF and broth microdilution methods, respectively. Transferability of the blaVIM- and mcr- type genes was verified through conjugation experiment. Extracted DNA was sequenced using long reads sequencing technology on the Sequel I platform (PacBio). RESULTS: the first isolate showed clinical resistance against ertapenem yet was colistin susceptible (EUCAST 2020 breakpoints). The mcr-9.2 gene was harbored on a conjugative IncHI2 plasmid, while the blaVIM-1 determinant was harbored on a conjugative IncN plasmid. The second isolate, resistant to both carbapenems and colistin, harbored: mcr-9 gene and its two component regulatory genes for increased expression on the chromosome, mcr-4.3 on non-conjugative (yet co-transferable) ColE plasmid, and blaVIM-1 on a non-conjugative IncA plasmid. CONCLUSIONS: to our knowledge, this is the first report of co-production of VIM and MCR in ECC isolates in Italy.

The allelic variants of immunity genes in historical breeds likely reflect local infection pressure and therefore represent a reservoir for breeding. Screening to determine the diversity of the Toll-like receptor gene TLR4 was conducted in two conserved cattle breeds: Czech Red and Czech Red Pied. High-throughput sequencing of pooled PCR amplicons using the PacBio platform revealed polymorphisms, which were subsequently confirmed via genotyping techniques. Eight SNPs found in coding and adjacent regions were grouped into 18 haplotypes, representing a significant portion of the known diversity in the global breed panel and presumably exceeding diversity in production populations. Notably, the ancient Czech Red breed appeared to possess greater haplotype diversity than the Czech Red Pied breed, a Simmental variant, although the haplotype frequencies might have been distorted by significant crossbreeding and bottlenecks in the history of Czech Red cattle. The differences in haplotype frequencies validated the phenotypic distinctness of the local breeds. Due to the availability of Czech Red Pied production herds, the effect of intensive breeding on TLR diversity can be evaluated in this model. The advantages of the Pacific Biosciences technology for the resequencing of long PCR fragments with subsequent direct phasing were independently validated.
