For more than a quarter of a century, sequencing technologies from Sanger’s method to next-generation high-throughput techniques have provided fascinating opportunities in the life sciences. The continuing upward trajectory of sequencing technologies will improve livestock research and expedite the development of various new genomic and technological studies with farm animals. The use of high-throughput technologies in livestock research has increased interest in metagenomics, epigenetics, genome-wide association studies, and identification of single nucleotide polymorphisms and copy number variations. Such studies are beginning to provide revolutionary insights into biological and evolutionary processes. Farm animals, such as cattle, swine, and horses, have played a dual role as economically and agriculturally important animals as well as biomedical research models. The first part of this study explores the current state of sequencing methods, many of which are already used in animal genomic studies, and the second part summarizes the state of cattle, swine, horse, and chicken genome sequencing and illustrates its achievements during the last few years. Finally, we describe several high-throughput sequencing approaches for the improved detection of known, unknown, and emerging infectious agents, leading to better diagnosis of infectious diseases. The insights from viral metagenomics and the advancement of next-generation sequencing will strongly support specific and efficient vaccine development and provide strategies for controlling infectious disease transmission among animal populations and/or between animals and humans. However, prospective sequencing technologies will require further research and in-field testing before reaching the marketplace.  相似文献

DNA microarray and next-generation DNA sequencing technologies are important tools for high-throughput genome research, in revealing both the structural and functional characteristics of genomes. In the past decade the DNA microarray technologies have been widely applied in the studies of functional genomics, systems biology and pharmacogenomics. The next-generation DNA sequencing method was first introduced by the 454 Company in 2003, immediately followed by the establishment of the Solexa and Solid techniques by other biotech companies. Though it has not been long since the first emergence of this technology, with the fast and impressive improvement, the application of this technology has extended to almost all fields of genomics research, as a rival challenging the existing DNA microarray technology. This paper briefly reviews the working principles of these two technologies as well as their application and perspectives in genome research.

新一代测序技术的研究进展   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
大规模DNA测序技术是揭秘人类和其它生物遗传密码的重要技术,在分子生物学和基础医学领域有广泛应用。第二代测序技术的出现使DNA测序的通量大幅提高,测序的成本大幅下降,原来只有在大型测序中心才能完成的测序任务现在已经可以在更多的实验室展开。但是,早期的第二代测序技术仍然存在诸如文库构建过程复杂、测序成本依然较高等缺点。为了克服上述缺点,近三年发展了几种新的第二代和第三代测序技术,这些技术不仅继承了早期第二代测序技术通量高的优点,而且在文库构建等方面取得了重要突破,进一步简化了测序操作,降低了测序成本,缩短了测序时间。本文就几种最新的大规模测序技术的原理、特点与发展趋势进行简要介绍。  相似文献

Deciphering the complex molecular dialogue between the maternal tract and embryo is crucial to increasing our understanding of pregnancy failure, infertility problems and in the modulation of embryo development, which has consequences through adulthood. High-throughput genomic technologies have been applied to look for a holistic view of the molecular interactions occurring during this dialogue. Among these technologies, microarrays have been widely used, being one of the most popular tools in maternal-embryo communication. Today, next generation sequencing technologies are dwarfing the capabilities of microarrays. The application of these new technologies has broadened to almost all areas of genomics research, because of their massive sequencing capacity. We review the current status of high-throughput genomic technologies and their application to maternal-embryo communication research. We also survey next generation technologies and their huge potential in many research areas. Given the diversity of unanswered questions in the field of maternal-embryo communication and the wide range of possibilities that these technologies offer, here we discuss future perspectives on the use of these technologies to enhance maternal-embryo research.  相似文献

药物成瘾是复杂的中枢神经系统疾病,相关基础与临床研究均证实药物成瘾的神经机制及神经环路在成瘾行为形成的不同阶段逐渐发生改变。利用全基因组关联研究、全基因组测序、全外显子测序或高通量转录组测序等技术的组学研究对包括药物成瘾在内的精神疾病遗传的脆弱性进行了深入研究。上述单核苷酸多态性检测技术或测序技术主要预测疾病的遗传风险位点。然而,许多中枢神经系统疾病的发生与环境因素密切相关,而且在疾病发展的不同阶段,相关基因的表达存在脑区特异性的细胞异质性信息。因此,传统研究对发病机制的解释存在一定的局限性。单细胞转录组测序技术是针对单个细胞进行转录水平的测定,规避了传统测序对细胞群体平均转录水平检测的缺点,可以定量描述细胞异质性。近年来,单细胞转录测序技术在神经精神科学研究中的应用逐渐受到关注,本文总结了该技术在神经科学研究中的重要应用,并以药物成瘾为例,重点阐述说明其在中枢神经系统疾病中的应用价值。  相似文献

随着耐药细菌的大量出现及广泛传播,细菌耐药性成为全球备受关注的问题。耐药细菌的特征如耐药基因、毒力因子、质粒分型等以及不同菌株间亲缘关系对于细菌耐药性流行病学及分子生物学的研究有着十分重要的意义。但是传统的技术手段如聚合酶链式反应(Polymerase chain reaction,PCR)和脉冲场凝胶电泳(Pulsed field gel electrophoresis,PFGE)等得到的结果不够全面且精确度低,对于现有的研究存在很大的局限性。全基因组测序技术(Whole genome sequencing,WGS)和生物信息学分析(Bioinformatics analysis)由于能够快速详尽地得到耐药细菌的特征,也能更加精细地判断不同菌株间的进化关系,逐渐成为更加有效的技术手段,为耐药性研究提供了有效的帮助。因此,文中系统地介绍全基因组测序分析流程中的各个步骤,主要包括文库构建、平台测序以及后期数据分析三大方面的不同方法和其相应的特点,期望相关研究人员对此能够有更全面的了解,并得到一定的帮助。  相似文献
