Genome Sequencing and Mutation Analysis of E. coli

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
DNA was isolated from overnight cultures using the Gentra Puregene Yeast/Bacteria kit (Qiagen). Twenty-one multiplex libraries were made using the IntegenX Apollo 324™ System. The libraries were sequenced on a single lane of an Illumina HiSeq, to a read length of 140 bases, resulting in an average fold-coverage of 400 for each strain. The reads were mapped to the E. coli K-12 MG1655 reference genome (GenBank: U00096.2) [22 (link)] using BWA for Illumina [23 (link)]. The resulting SAM files were converted to BAM files using SAMtools [24 (link)]. The BAM files were visualized using Integrated Genome Viewer (IGV) [25 (link)], manually searching the genomes for SNPs, deletions, insertions, and amplifications. An insertion is predicted at a genomic location with a marked decrease in read depth, which occurs when individual sequencing reads fail to span that location. An amplification is predicted at genomic intervals containing a consistent read depth of more than 1.5-times the background read depth. All mutations are described in Additional file 1: Table S1. To reduce the possibility of overlooking some genomic mutations, the sequence data were also analyzed with FreeBayes, a powerful variant-detector package [26 ]. No additional mutations were identified using this second method.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Hybrid assembly was performed using short-read Illumina MiniSeq (Illumina) and long-read Nanopore MinION (Oxford Nanopore Technologies). WGS of strain KUHS13 was performed using a MiniSeq system (Illumina) with a High Output reagent kit (300 cycles). The library for sequencing (insertion size, 500 to 900 bp) was prepared using a Nextera XT DNA library prep kit (Illumina). On the other hand, the DNA library for Nanopore MinION was prepared using a rapid barcoding kit (SQK RBK-004; Oxford Nanopore Technologies) from total DNAs extracted using a Qiagen Genomic-tip 20/G or Gentra Puregene yeast/bacteria kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany) and then sequenced on a MinION flow cell (R9.4.1). WGS statistics are shown in Table S1 in the supplemental material. Raw data sets from the Nanopore MinION assay were submitted to Porechop (v0.2.3). The reads were assembled de novo using Canu (v1.8) (30 (link)). After the data were trimmed from Canu, they were polished with Racon (v1.3.1.1) and Pilon (v1.20.1) (31 (link), 32 (link)). The nucleotide sequence of the left end of the linear plasmid (pELF2) was further checked by Sanger sequencing. DFAST and RAST were used to obtain the annotation (33 (link), 34 (link)).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Sequencing and assembly of draft genomes of 25 A. veronii strains were conducted as described in our previous study [28 (link)]. Briefly, bacterial DNA was extracted using Gentra Puregene Yeast/Bacteria Kit (Qiagen, Chadstone, Victoria, Australia). Briefly, the DNA libraries were sequenced via the 150 bp or 250 bp paired-end sequencing chemistry on the MiSeq Personal Sequencer [29 (link)]. Reads were assembled using Shovill (v 1.0.5), and genome coverage was calculated using qualimap (v 2.2.1) [30 (link)]. Sequencing of the draft genome was performed in the Marshall Centre for Infectious Diseases Research at the University of Western Australia.

Bacterial Growth Adductomics Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The exposure was done similar to that in the bacterial growth assay. Experiments were done in triplicates. For S. oneidensis, 21.9 mL bacterial suspension was used per replicate and 135 mL was used for B. subtilis. Bacterial growth was monitored before and after exposure. After 8 or 5 hours of exposure for S. oneidensis and B. subtilis, respectively, cell pellets were collected by centrifugation at 4000 × g for 20 minutes and stored at −80 °C until being thawed for DNA extraction. DNA extraction of S. oneidensis was done using Gentra Puregene Yeast/Bacteria Kit (Qiagen) and that of B. subtilis was extracted using a DNeasy PowerLyzer Microbial Kit (Qiagen). Both protocols were optimized to be suitable for the adductomics study. See ESI for details of cell lysis and DNA extraction.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
C. concisus strains sequenced in this study were isolated from saliva samples or intestinal biopsies in our previous studies3 (link)6 (link)11 (link)22 (link). The genomes of 27 C. concisus strains were sequenced. C. concisus strains were grown on Horse Blood Agar (HBA) plates as previously described1 (link). DNA was extracted from each C. concisus strain using the Gentra Puregene Yeast/Bacteria Kit according to the manufacturer’s instructions (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany). The quality of DNA was checked using Nanodrop and Qubit Fluorometer. Bacterial genomic DNA (1 ng) was used for genomic library generation in accordance with the Nextera XT protocol (Ver. May 2012). Libraries were sequenced for a 250 bp paired-end sequencing run using Nextera XT V2 on the MiSeq Personal Sequencer running version 1.1.1 MiSeq Control Software (Illumina Inc., San Diego, CA, USA). Reagent contamination was controlled by barcoding all DNA samples and preparation of barcoding index primers for a single use. The quality of reads was assessed based on the Phred quality score of the reads. The reads mapping fold coverage was calculated using qualimap_v2.040 (link). We aimed to get a fold coverage of at least 50X for each genome, which was shown to be adequate for characterization of genomes41 (link).

To analyze the bacterial population diversity and its change at high concentrations of DON, the enriched microbial consortium C20 was isolated from environmental samples and was added to MM to degrade DON, with DON concentrations of 10 and 100 μg ml−1. The bacteria were incubated in media with different concentrations of DON at 30°C for 72 h. Genomic DNA of the enriched microbial cultures was extracted and purified with Gentra Puregene Yeast/Bacteria Kit (Qiagen Inc., Mississauga, Ontario, Canada). The hypervariable V3-V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene was amplified by PCR with primers 341F (CCTACGGGNGGCWGCAG) and 805R (GACTACHVGGGTATCTAATCC) (Ahad et al., 2017 (link)) and sequenced by Sangon Biotech Co. (Shanghai, China). Further, the 16S rRNA (V3-V4 region) gene sequences were compared with the ribosomal database project (RDP)1. All treatments were conducted in triplicates.

Genomic DNA from each culture was extracted and purified using the Gentra Puregene Yeast/Bacteria Kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany), following the manufacturer’s protocols for Gram-positive and/or Gram-negative bacteria when applicable. Genomic DNA was amplified using modified bacterial specific 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene primers 8F (5′-GTTTGATCCTGGCTCAG-3′) and 1492R (5′-TACCTTGTTACGACTT-3′) [61 (link),62 ] and directly sequenced at the University of Chicago’s Comprehensive Cancer Center’s DNA Sequencing and Genotyping Facility using their methods. We assembled the resulting forward and reverse sequence reads and manually edited these in Geneious Prime build 29 November 2019 [63 (link)]. The resulting consensus sequences were subsequently queried against the nr database at NCBI (National Center for Biotechnology Information), using a BLASTn search [64 (link)] to retrieve the sequence and GenBank numbers of the most closely related taxa for phylogenetic placement of NTK sequences.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
