A robust benchmark for detection of germline large deletions and insertions

June 15, 2020
Author(s)
Justin Zook, Nathanael David Olson, Marc Salit, Fritz Sedlazeck
New technologies and analysis methods are enabling genomic structural variants (SVs) to be detected with ever-increasing accuracy, resolution and comprehensiveness. To help translate these methods to routine research and clinical practice, we developed a

Structural basis for oligoclonal T cell recognition of a shared p53 cancer neoantigen

June 9, 2020

David Travis Gallagher, Roy A. Mariuzza, Brian G. Pierce, Daichao Wu, Ragul Gowthaman
Abstract Adoptive cell therapy (ACT) with tumor-specific T cells can mediate cancer regression. The main target of tumor-specific T cells are neoantigens arising from mutations in self-proteins. Although the majority of cancer neoantigens are unique to

Assembly and annotation of an Ashkenazi human reference genome

June 2, 2020
Author(s)
Justin M. Zook, Justin M. Wagner, Nathanael D. Olson, Steven L. Salzberg, Alaina Shumate, Aleksey V. Zimin, Daniela Puiu, Mihaela Pertea, Marc Salit
Thousands of experiments and studies use the human reference genome as a resource each year. This single reference genome, GRCh38, is a mosaic created from a small number of individuals, representing a very small sample of the human population. There is a

Nanopore sequencing and the Shasta toolkit enable efficient de novo assembly of eleven human genomes

May 4, 2020
Author(s)
Justin M. Zook, Kishwar Shafin, Trevor Pesout, Ryan Lorig-Roach, Marina Haukness, Hugh E. Olsen, Miten Jain, Benedict Paten
De novo assembly of a human genome using nanopore long-read sequences has been reported, but it used more than 150,000 CPU hours and weeks of wall-clock time. To enable rapid human genome assembly, we present Shasta, a de novo long-read assembler, and

Mass Spectral Library of Acylcarnitines Derived from Human Urine

April 8, 2020
Author(s)
Xinjian Yan, Sanford Markey, Ramesh Marupaka, Qian Dong, Brian T. Cooper, Yuri Mirokhin, William E. Wallace, Stephen Stein
We describe the creation of a mass spectral library of acylcarnitines and conjugated acylcarnitines from the LC–MS/MS analysis of six NIST urine reference materials. To recognize acylcarnitines, we conducted in-depth analyses of fragmentation patterns of

Highland games: A benchmarking exercise in predicting biophysical and drug properties of monoclonal antibodies from amino acid sequences

April 6, 2020
Author(s)
John E. Schiel, Coffman Jon, Bruno Marques, Griesbach Jan, Ambrose Williams, Gisela Ferreira, Rushd Khalaf, David Roush, Charles Haynes
Biopharmaceutical product and process development does not yet take advantage of predictive computational modeling to nearly the degree seen in industries based on smaller molecules. To assess and advance progress in this area, spirited coopetition was

Quantitative Bright-Field Microscopy Combined with Deep Neural Networks Predict Live Tissue Function

February 29, 2020
Author(s)
Carl Simon Jr., Nicholas J. Schaub, Petru S. Manescu, Sarala Padi, Mylene Simon, Peter Bajcsy, Nathan A. Hotaling, Joe Chalfoun, Mohamed Ouladi, Qin Wan, Kapil Bharti, Ruchi Sharma
Progressive increases in the number of cell therapies in the preclinical and clinical phases has prompted the need for reliable and non-invasive assays to validate transplant function in clinical biomanufacturing. Here, we developed a robust

HIV-1 gp120-CD4-Induced Antibody Complex Elicits CD4 Binding Site-Specific Antibody Response in Mice

February 17, 2020
Author(s)
Andrey Galkin, Yajing Chen, Sijy O'Dell, Roderico Acevedo, James Steinhardt, Yimeng Wang, Richard Wilson, Chi-I Chiang, Alexander Grishaev, John Mascola, Yuxing Li
Elicitation of broadly neutralizing Ab (bNAb) responses toward the conserved HIV-1 envelope (Env) CD4 binding site (CD4bs) by vaccination is an important goal for vaccine development and yet to be achieved. The outcome of previous immunogenicity studies
