Superbug Genome Sequenced

The genome of a newly-emerging superbug, commonly known as Steno, has just been sequenced. The results reveal an organism with a remarkable capacity for drug resistance. The research was carried out by scientists at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute near Cambridge and the University of Bristol. Understanding the genome of this bacterium will help researchers discover how to deal with this particularly resistant organism. The paper will be published in Genome Biology.

First Draft of Oil Palm Genome Completed by Synthetic Genomics Inc and Asiatic Centre for Genome Technology

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia and LA JOLLA, Calif., May 21 /PRNewswire/ -- Asiatic Centre for Genome Technology Sdn Bhd (ACGT), which is focused on the commercial application of genome technology to improve oil palm and other crops and Synthetic Genomics Inc. (SGI), a privately held company dedicated to commercializing genomic-driven solutions to address global energy and environmental challenges, today announced the completion of a first draft assembly and annotation of the oil palm genome. The organizations also announced that they have made progress in sequencing and analyzing the jatropha genome. The oil palm and jatropha genome projects represent the first stages of research undertaken through a joint venture between SGI and ACGT which was announced in 2007 and is aimed at developing more high-yielding and disease-resistant plant feedstocks

Platypus genome unravels mysteries of mammalian evolution

Genome Research is publishing several papers related to analyses of the duck-billed platypus (Ornithorhynchus anatinus) genome sequence. The place of (egg-laying) monotremes, such as the platypus, in mammalian evolutionary history has remained controversial. Now, researchers are finding that the distinctive anatomical and physiological properties of the platypus are reflected in the newly sequenced platypus genome. Through comparative genomics, the platypus genome is providing remarkable insights into the evolution of venom components, the sex-determination system, testicular descent, and small RNA pathways. Primary research reports describing these novel insights will appear online May 8, concurrent with publication of the platypus genome sequence report in the journal Nature.

Deadly new superbug genome sequenced

Scientists at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute near Cambridge and University of Bristol have made a breakthrough in the fight against a new "superbug" that kills one in three of its victims, by sequencing its genome.

Genome Prairie Announces New President and CEO

SASKATOON/WINNIPEG, June 27 /CNW/ - Dr. Arnold Naimark, Chair of Genome Prairie's Board of Directors, announced today the appointment of Dr. Wilf Keller as the new President and CEO of Genome Prairie. "Dr. Keller's research experience, accomplishments and exemplary record of leadership at the National Research Council - Plant Biotechnology Institute make him the ideal choice for President and CEO," commented Dr. Naimark. Dr. Keller has held the position of Director of Research and, most recently, Acting Director General, at NRC-PBI. Dr. Keller's appointment comes at a very important time for Genome Prairie. Genome Canada's Applied Genomics Research in Bioproducts and Crops (ABC) Competition is currently underway and involves several crops and bioproducts researchers in Saskatchewan and Manitoba.

A Genome in Any Format

In a recent post, Andrew Yates asked, "How much data is a human genome?" He then did a little math to show that an uncompressed diploid human genome would easily fit on two music CDs, if stored as a text file. That got Genetic Future's Daniel MacArthur thinking. There are, he says, other formats that a human genome could be stored in, including as images from an Illumina machine. In that format, a genome with 30x coverage would take up about 28.80 terabytes. Also, if the sequence data is stored as a Sequence Read Format file, the storage space'll top out at 1.98 terabytes.

Illumina and Genpathway Announce Partnership to Provide Whole-Genome ChIP-Sequencing Services

Illumina, Inc. (NASDAQ:ILMN) and Genpathway today announced the formation of a partnership to provide researchers whole-genome chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) sequencing services. Samples are first prepared using Genpathway's FactorPath ChIP assays, and then sequenced by the Genome Analyzer through Illumina's Sequencing Services. Final data analysis is completed by Genpathway using their proprietary software analysis tools. Combined, the Illumina and Genpathway services provide researchers with access to a complete ChIP-sequencing solution for identifying and quantifying transcription factor binding sites across the entire genome.

Transgenomic Introduces SURVEYOR Endonuclease Adaptor-Ligated Libraries (SEAL) for Determining Whole Genome Sequence Variation

OMAHA, Neb., June 17, 2008 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Transgenomic today announced that it is developing SURVEYOR Endonuclease Adaptor-ligated Libraries (SEAL). A cost-effective and high throughput enabling technology for whole genome analysis, SEAL identifies DNA variations between a reference genome and a test genome. SEAL is designed to recognize point mutations and small insertion/deletions at 100 to 1000 times lower sequencing intensity than current methods, and thus has the potential to reduce the cost of whole genome analysis of such variations to under $10,000.

Brucella abortus S19 genome sequenced; points toward virulence genes

Researchers at the Virginia Bioinformatics Institute at Virginia Tech and the National Animal Disease Center in Ames, Iowa, and collaborators at 454 Life Sciences of Branford, Conn., have sequenced the genome of Brucella abortus strain S19. Strain S19 is a naturally occurring strain of B. abortus that does not cause disease and was discovered by Dr. John Buck in 1923. It has been used for more than six decades as vaccine that protects cattle against brucellosis, an infectious disease caused by other strains of B. abortus that leads to reproductive failure in livestock.
