  • Purpose : Meningitis is an inflammation of meninges by various kinds of organisms. Almost 85% of aseptic meningitis is caused by Enterovirus. This study was done to detect the causative virus of those with aseptic meningitis through sequencing the 5'-noncoding region to compare prototype and homology. Methods : RNA was extracted from Coxsackie Bl, Echovirus 3, 7, 9, 30. DNA was synthesized by RT-PCR and we compared homology with prototype from WHO by direct sequencing. Results : 1) PCR products from these viruses showed same bands of 155 bp and 440 bp on gel electrophoresis. 2) Coxsackievirus and Echovirus 11 prototype sequences were compared, which showed 12 bp changes with 92.1%. 3) Coxsackievirus B1 from a patient showed 94.1% homology when compared with prototype. 4) Echovirus 3 showed 92.8%, echovirus 7 92.8%, echovirus 30 82.9% homology. Conclusion : 5'-NCR of enterovirus has high homology which was good for use of diagnosis and more long sequencing requires for typing of viruses.

  • Recently various kinds of Information Technology services are created and the quantities of the data flow are increase rapidly. Not only that, but the data patterns that we deal with also slowly becoming diversity. As a result, the demand of discover the meaningful knowledge/information through the various mining analysis such as linkage analysis, sequencing analysis, classification and prediction, has been steadily increasing. However, solving the business problems using data mining analysis does not always concerning, one of the major causes of these limitations is there are some analyzed data can't accurately reflect the real world phenomenon. For example, although the time gap of purchasing the two products is very short, by using the traditional sequencing analysis, the precedence relationship of the two products is clearly reflected. But in the real world, with the very short time interval, the precedence relationship of the two purchases might not be defined. What was worse, the sequence of the purchase intention and the sequence of the purchase realization of the two products might be mutually be reversed. Therefore, in this study, an expanded sequencing analysis methodology has been proposed in order to reflect this situation. In this proposed methodology, the purchases that being made in a very short time interval among the purchase order which might not important will be notice, and the analysis which included the original sequence and reversed sequence will be used to extend the analysis of the data. Also, to some extent a very short time interval can be defined as the time interval, so an experiment were carried out to determine the varying based on the time interval for the actual data.

  • Metagenomics has become one of the indispensable tools in microbial ecology for the last few decades, and a new revolution in metagenomic studies is now about to begin, with the help of recent advances of sequencing techniques. The massive data production and substantial cost reduction in next-generation sequencing have led to the rapid growth of metagenomic research both quantitatively and qualitatively. It is evident that metagenomics will be a standard tool for studying the diversity and function of microbes in the near future, as fingerprinting methods did previously. As the speed of data accumulation is accelerating, bioinformatic tools and associated databases for handling those datasets have become more urgent and necessary. To facilitate the bioinformatics analysis of metagenomic data, we review some recent tools and databases that are used widely in this field and give insights into the current challenges and future of metagenomics from a bioinformatics perspective.

  • The objective of this study was to review application of next-generation sequencing (NGS) to investigate microbiome in the livestock sector. Since the 16S rRNA gene is used as a phylogenetic marker, unculturable members of microbiome in nature or managed environments have been investigated using the NGS technique based on 16S rRNA genes. However, few NGS studies have been conducted to investigate microbiome in the livestock sector. The 16S rRNA gene sequences obtained from NGS are classified to microbial taxa against the 16S rRNA gene reference database such as RDP, Greengenes and Silva databases. The sequences also are clustered into species-level OTUs at 97% sequence similarity. Microbiome similarity among treatment groups is visualized using principal coordinates analysis, while microbiome shared among treatment groups is visualized using a venn diagram. The use of the NGS technique will contribute to elucidating roles of microbiome in the livestock sector.

  • Recently, single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) technology has enabled the discovery of novel or rare subtypes of cells and their characteristics. This technique has advanced unprecedented biomedical research by enabling the profiling and analysis of the transcriptomes of single cells at high resolution and throughput. Thus, scRNA-seq has contributed to recent advances in cardiovascular research by the generation of cell atlases of heart and blood vessels and the elucidation of mechanisms involved in cardiovascular development and diseases. This review summarizes the overall workflow of the scRNA-seq technique itself and key findings in the cardiovascular development and diseases based on the previous studies. In particular, we focused on how the single-cell sequencing technology can be utilized in clinical field and precision medicine to treat specific diseases.

  • Phylotranscriptomics is the study of phylogenetic relationships among taxa based on their DNA sequences derived from transcriptomes. Because of the relatively low cost of transcriptome sequencing compared with genome sequencing and the fact that phylotranscriptomics is almost as reliable as phylogenomics, the phylotranscriptomic analysis has recently emerged as the preferred method for studying evolutionary biology. However, it is challenging to perform transcriptomic and phylogenetic analyses together without programming expertise. This study presents a protocol for phylotranscriptomic analysis to aid marine biologists unfamiliar with UNIX command-line interface and bioinformatics tools. Here, we used transcriptomes to reconstruct a molecular phylogeny of dinoflagellate protists, a diverse and globally abundant group of marine plankton organisms whose large and complex genomic sequences have impeded conventional phylogenic analysis based on genomic data. We hope that our proposed protocol may serve as practical and helpful information for the training and education of novice phycologists.

  • The unique Br signature was utilized for C-terminal amino acid sequencing of model peptides. C-terminal carboxyl group was selectively derivatized in peptides, containing side chain carboxyl group, using 1-ethyl-3-[3-dimethylaminopropyl]carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC) and Br was introduced using 4-bromophenylhydrazine hydrochloride (BPH) in a one pot reaction. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) time-of-flight (TOF) tandem mass spectra were obtained carrying the Br signature in the y-series ions. The Br signature facilitated C-terminal sequencing and discrimination of C-terminal carboxyl groups in the free acid and amide forms.
