Colorectal Cancer and the Human Gut Microbiome: Reproducibility with Whole-Genome Shotgun Sequencing
Accumulating evidence indicates that the gut microbiota affects colorectal cancer development, but previous studies have varied in population, technical methods, and associations with cancer. Understanding these variations is needed for comparisons and for potential pooling across studies. Therefore, we performed whole-genome shotgun sequencing on fecal samples from 52 pre-treatment colorectal ...
متن کاملHuman whole-genome shotgun sequencing.
Large-scale sequencing of the human genome is now under way (Boguski et al. 1996; Marshall and Pennisi 1996). Although at the beginning of the Genome Project, many doubted the scientific value of sequencing the entire human genome, these doubts have evaporated almost entirely (Gibbs 1995; Olson 1995). Primary reasons for generating the human genomic sequence are listed in Table 1. The approach ...
متن کاملAn Algorithm for Whole Genome Shotgun Sequencing
The push to sequence the entire human genome is gearing up [1]. Recently there has been disagreement within the genome community as to the best approach for sequencing the human genome. While many scientists believe that clone mapping is the best solution, others argue that whole genome shotgun sequencing is a cheaper and faster alternative. Arguments for [2] and against [3] whole genome shotgu...
متن کاملComparing vertebrate whole-genome shotgun reads to the human genome.
Multi-species sequence comparisons are a very efficient way to reveal conserved genes. Because sequence finishing is expensive and time consuming, many genome sequences are likely to stay incomplete. A challenge is to use these fragmented data for understanding the human genome. Methods for using cross-species whole-genome shotgun sequence (WGS) for genome annotation are described in this paper...
متن کاملA Dataset Generator for Whole Genome Shotgun Sequencing
Simulated data sets have been found to be useful in developing software systems because (1) they allow one to study the effect of a particular phenomenon in isolation, and (2) one has complete information about the true solution against which to measure the results of the software. In developing a software suite for assembling a whole human genome shotgun data set, we have developed a simulator...
