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: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:This data set contains 1376 mass spectrometry reads from root, rhizosphere and leaf sample of Populus Trichocarpa, as well as associated controls. This metabolomics data set was collected as part of a larger campaign which complements the metabolomics data with metagenome sequencing, transcriptomics, and soil measurement data.
Project description:The Oxford Nanopore (ONT) platform provides portable and rapid genome sequencing, and its ability to natively profile DNA methylation without complex sample processing is attractive for clinical sequencing. We recently demonstrated ONT shallow whole-genome sequencing to detect copy number alterations (CNA) from the circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) of cancer patients. Here, we show that cell-type and cancer-specific methylation changes can also be detected, as well as cancer-associated fragmentation signatures. This feasibility study suggests that ONT shallow WGS could be a powerful tool for liquid biopsy, especially real-time medical applications.
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.
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.
