Project description:Rising population density and global mobility are among the reasons why pathogens such as SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, spread so rapidly across the globe. The policy response to such pandemics will always have to include accurate monitoring of the spread, as this provides one of the few alternatives to total lockdown. However, COVID-19 diagnosis is currently performed almost exclusively by Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR). Although this is efficient, automatable and acceptably cheap, reliance on one type of technology comes with serious caveats, as illustrated by recurring reagent and test shortages. We, therefore, developed an alternative diagnostic test that detects proteolytically digested SARS-CoV-2 proteins using Mass Spectrometry (MS). We established the Cov-MS consortium, consisting of fifteen academic labs and several industrial partners to increase applicability, accessibility, sensitivity and robustness of this kind of Sars-Cov-2 detection. This in turn gave rise to the Cov-MS Digital Incubator that allows labs to join the effort, navigate and share their optimizations, and translate the assay into their clinic. As this test relies on viral proteins instead of RNA, it provides an orthogonal and complementary approach to RT-PCR, using other reagents that are relatively inexpensive and widely available, as well as orthogonally skilled personnel and different instruments.

Project description:Data independent acquistion (DIA) is becoming widely as a method of choice in quantitation proteomics due to its high reproducibility and quantitation accuracy at high-throughput fashion. In this project, we systematically evaluated the effect of the selected precursor mass range for DIA-MS on the protein identification and quantification. We show that a narrow precursor window (400-650 m/z) DIA could identify a 34.7% more proteins than a conventional DIA with a wide precursor window of 400-1200 m/z. When combining the three narrow precursor windows (400-650, 650-900, and 900-1200 m/z) DIA-MS analyses, we obtained a 59.4% increase in the number of proteins quantified than a conventional DIA-MS analysis.

Project description:The anadromous Atlantic salmon undergo preparatory physiological transformations before seawater entry, referred to as smoltification. Little is known about the photoperiod-influence and genome regulatory processes driving smoltification such as the large scale changes in lipid metabolism and energy homeostasis in the developing smolt liver. To shed light on this, we performed a smoltification trial using contrasting photoperiod regimes and generate ATAC-seq data from livers throughout smoltification and after seawater transfer to assess the differences in chromatin accessibility. In this experiment Atlantic salmon were reared for a total of 46 weeks from the parr stage, through smoltification, and seawater transfer. After 21 week from first feeding, the group was given artificial winter photoperiod (8 hours light, 16 hours dark) for 8 weeks to induce smoltification before returning to constant light. Liver tissue was sampled from individuals first at week 1, 21 weeks after first feeding, then again at week 10, after the winter period, at week 19, after the expected smoltification time, and lastly at week 25, after transfer to seawater.

Project description:To analyse gene expression pattern in different disease state of COVID-19 patients. Experimental workflow: 1) Small RNA enrichment and purification, 2) Adaptor ligation and Unique molecular identifiers (UMI) labeled Primer addition, 3) RT-PCR, Library quantitation and pooling cyclization, 4) Library quality control, 5) Small RNAs were sequenced by BGI500 platform with 50bp single-end reads resulting in at least 20M reads for each sample. Analysis steps: 1) Small RNA raw sequencing reads with low quality tags (which have more than four bases whose quality is less than ten, or have more than six bases with a quality less than thirteen.), the reads with poly A tags, and the tags without 3’ primer or tags shorter than 18nt were removed. 2) After data filtering, the clean reads were mapped to the reference genome and other sRNA database including miRbase, siRNA, piRNA and snoRNA using Bowtie2 (Langmead and Salzberg, 2012). Particularly, cmsearch (Nawrocki and Eddy, 2013) was performed for Rfam mapping. 3) The small RNA expression level was calculated by counting absolute numbers of molecules using unique molecular identifiers (UMI, 8-10nt). MiRNA with UMI count lager than 1 in at least one sample were considered as expressed.

Project description:To analyse gene expression pattern in different disease state of COVID-19 patients. Experimental workflow: 1) rRNA was removed by using RNase H method, 2) QAIseq FastSelect RNA Removal Kit was used to remove the Globin RNA, 3) The purified fragmented cDNA was combined with End Repair Mix, then add A-Tailing Mix, mix well by pipetting, incubation, 4) PCR amplification, 5) Library quality control and pooling cyclization, 6) The RNA library was sequenced by MGI2000 PE100 platform with 100bp paired-end reads. Analysis steps: 1) RNA-seq raw sequencing reads were filtered by SOAPnuke (Li et al., 2008) to remove reads with sequencing adapter, with low-quality base ratio (base quality < 5) > 20%, and with unknown base (’N’ base) ratio > 5%. 2) Reads aligned to rRNA by Bowtie2 (v2.2.5) (Langmead and Salzberg, 2012) were removed. 3) The clean reads were mapped to the reference genome using HISAT2 (Kim et al., 2015). Bowtie2 (v2.2.5) was applied to align the clean reads to the transcriptome. 4)Then the gene expression level (FPKM) was determined by RSEM (Li and Dewey, 2011). Genes with FPKM > 0.1 in at least one sample were retained.

Project description:The coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) pandemic caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) posts a challenge for the understanding of factors affecting disease severity and the identification of prognostic biomarkers and physiological processes relevant for the development of new diagnostic and therapeutic interventions to contribute to the control of this pandemic. To address this challenge, in this study we used a quantitative proteomics together with multiple data analysis algorithms to characterize serum protein profiles in five cohorts from healthy to SARS-CoV-2-infected asymptomatic, recovered, nonsevere and severe individuals. The results corroborated previous findings, but the analysis was focused on novel disease processes and biomarkers. Our results contributed to the characterization of SARS-CoV-2-host molecular interactions and provided protein prognostic biomarkers and physiological disorders associated with COVID-19 with potential implications for the development of new diagnostic and therapeutic interventions to contribute to the control of this pandemic.

Project description:Using omics tools with the SARS-CoV-2 infected Syrian hamster as model for COVID-19, along with published datasets from COVID-19 patients, Nouailles et al. present a detailed longitudinal analysis of systemic and pulmonary quantitative and qualitative immune responses in a moderate disease setting. Targeted analysis of the alveolar and microvascular niche revealed a dominant role for monocyte-derived macrophages and endothelial cells regarding early anti-viral genes as well as pro-inflammatory and T cell recruiting chemokine expression. Recruitment of cytotoxic effector T cells coincided with viral clearance. This combined response was favorable for a moderate and self-limited disease course.

Project description:Coagulopathy is a hallmark finding in patients infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and is associated with an increased risk of death from venous and arterial thromboembolic complications. SARS-CoV-2 infection can lead to microvascular thrombosis that contributes to acute lung injury and respiratory failure. The molecular mechanisms leading to thrombosis in Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID19) patients are poorly understood. Here, we study a role of the procoagulant neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs)/Factor XII (FXII) axis in COVID19-associated thromboembolism.

Project description:Distant enhancer elements are a major source of specificity in mammalian gene expression. Although enhancers that regulate broad developmental decisions and inducible gene expression have been studied extensively, little is known about regulatory elements that govern monogenic and monoallelic expression. Here, using high throughput epigenetic and genetic techniques we identified a plethora of distant enhancers that regulate monoallelic olfactory receptor (OR) gene expression. Potential OR enhancers have unique, cell type specific epigenetic marks that distinguish them from other neuronal enhancers and correlate with enhancer activity in vivo. Using sequence capture to enrich for these sequences we identified Dnase-protected footprints that reveal novel regulatory sequences and transcription factors required for OR gene activation. Our experiments provide insight to the regulation of OR expression, and describe novel principles and methodologies towards the understanding of transcriptional mechanisms that generate cellular diversity. In vivo examination of H3K79me3 enrichment and DNAse protected footprints on olfactory receptor enhancer sequences. We performed ChIP-seq on native chromatin isolated from the mouse olfactory epithelium using antibodies against H3K79me3. To sequence accessible regions of the genome we treated nuclei with limiting amounts of DNAse I to digest accessible chromatin and perform Dnase Hypersensitivity (DHS)-seq. In the olfactory epithelium, the H enhancer – the first described enhancer for olfactory receptors has a well-defined DNAse I hypersensitivity peak and is flanked by high levels of H3K79me3. We find other intergenic sequences nearby olfactory receptor genes that share the same chromatin signature, and test their function in vivo. TO uncover transcription factor footprints on olfactory receptor enhancers we performed sequence capture of the DHS-seq library to enrich for these sequences. We find multiple DNAse-protected sequences and perform motif analysis on transcription factor footprints to reveal factors involved in olfactory receptor gene regulation.
