Project description:Resistance to the phenoxy synthetic auxin herbicide 2,4-D is conferred by a deletion mutation in the degron tail of IAA2. An RNA-Seq experiment was used to assemble a reference transcriptome for the weed species Sisymbrium orientale, to quantify gene expression, and to identify sequence variants in the alignments. A 27 bp deletion was identified in the IAA2 gene. Forward genetics supported the role of this deletion mutation in resistance. The IAA2 deletion allele was transformed into Arabidopsis thaliana to confirm that it conferred 2,4-D resistance.
Project description:Primary objectives: The primary objective is to investigate circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) via deep sequencing for mutation detection and by whole genome sequencing for copy number analyses before start (baseline) with regorafenib and at defined time points during administration of regorafenib for treatment efficacy in colorectal cancer patients in terms of overall survival (OS).

Project description:One ONT-ULK sequencing run from the kidney of a single male CDMR (Bathyergus suillus) sample used to make the mBatSui1.1.primary genome assembly as an evolutionary comparator to our telomere-to-telomere naked mole-rat genome assembly. Specifically, we assembled a CDMR from a wild-derived sample in South African cape and sequenced in Toronto, Canada, using PacBio HiFi (89 Gb, read N50 = 18 Kb) and ONT-ULK (55 Gb, read N50 = 43 Kb) reads (contig N50 = 33 Mb, Compleasm S = 99%, QV = 71.0). This accession stores the ONT-ULK data for this assembly.
