Project description:Sequencing was performed to assess the ability of Nanopore direct cDNA and native RNA sequencing to characterise human transcriptomes. Total RNA was extracted from either HAP1 or HEK293 cells, and the polyA+ fraction isolated using oligodT dynabeads. Libraries were prepared using Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) kits according to manufacturers instructions. Samples were then sequenced on ONT R9.4 flow cells to generate fast5 raw reads in the ONT MinKNOW software. Fast5 reads were then base-called using the ONT Albacore software to generate Fastq reads.
Project description:The LRGASP challenge encompasses different human, mouse, and manatee samples sequenced using multiple combinations of protocols and platforms. Different challenges will use distinct subsets of the samples for evaluation. The long-read sequencing platforms used in these challenges are the Pacific Biosciences (PacBio) Sequel II, Oxford Nanopore (ONT) MinION and PromethION. Samples will also be sequenced on the Illumina HiSeq 2500. The primary LRGASP library prep protocols are “standard” cDNA sequencing, direct RNA sequencing, R2C2, and CapTrap. Each sample will also include Lexogen SIRV-Set 4 spike-ins. We will also provide simulated PacBio and ONT data as part of the evaluations. This particular study focuses on single strand CAGE sequencing of human iPSCs, defining CAGE peaks from Illumina HiSeq 2500 (SR: 150 cycles) of two biological replicates for use in the LRGASP challenge.
Project description:Here we describe CapTrap-Seq, an experimental workflow designed to address the problem of reduced transcript end detection by long-read RNA sequencing methods, especially at the 5' ends. We apply CapTrap-Seq to profile transcriptomes of the human heart and brain and we compared the obtained results with other library preparation approaches. CapTrap-Seq is a platform-agnostic method and here tested the method by using 3 different long-read sequencing platforms: MinION (ONT), Sequel (PacBaio) and Sequel II (PacBio).
Project description:Rapidly increased studies by third-generation sequencing [Pacific Biosciences (Pacbio) and Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT)] have been used in all kinds of research areas. Among them, the plant full-length single-molecule transcriptome studies were most used by Pacbio while ONT was rarely used. Therefore, in this study, we developed ONT RNA-sequencing methods in plants. We performed a detailed evaluation of reads from Pacbio and Nanopore PCR cDNA (ONT Pc) sequencing in plants (Arabidopsis), including the characteristics of raw data and identification of transcripts. We aimed to provide a valuable reference for applications of ONT in plant transcriptome analysis.
Project description:To identify aberrant splicing isoforms and potential neoantigens, we performed full-length cDNA sequencing of lung adenocarcinoma cell lines using a long-read sequencer MinION. We constructed a comprehensive catalog of aberrant splicing isoforms and detected isoform-specific peptides using proteome analysis.
Project description:Investigation of transcriptome changes in four human cell lines (BJ, BJ-5ta, U2OS and HeLa) after treatment for 24 hours with nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). Cells were untreated as the control condition. Nanopore sequencing of cDNA was performed after library preparation with the ONT SQK-PCB109 kit.
Project description:The purpose was to investigate transcript and splicing changes in U2OS cells following siRNA-mediated depletion of MDC1 and PLRG1 or treatment with the splicing inhibitor pladienolide B. Cells were treated with control siRNA as control condition. Nanopore sequencing of cDNA was performed after library preparation with ONT kits SQK-PCS109 and SQK-PBK004.
