To detect Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) markers associated with Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) and Bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV) S/P ratio in Korean Holstein dairy cattle, Genome-wide association study (GWAS) was performed using Illumina BovineSNP50 Beadchip. The number of phenotype data and genotype data were 107, and 294. respectively. Phenotype data were collected for four periods (0 week, 1 week, 4 week, 24 week) after having vaccinated (0 week no vaccinated period). A total of 36,257 SNPs was remained after quality control had been done by PLINK. The result of GWAS showed 6 SNP markers (BTB-01704243, BTB-01594395, ARS-BFGL-NGS-118070, ARS-BFGL-NGS-111365, BTA-65410-no-rs, Hapmap38331-BTA-61256) under BVDV and 4 SNP markers (ARS-BFGL-NGS-109861, Hapmap53701-rs29017064, ARS-BFGL-NGS-71055, BTA-11232-no-rs) under BRSV. And also, 10 candidate genes found through 10 SNP markers (TBX18, CEP162, PAFAH1B1, METTL16, BRCA1, RND2, POLK, ENSBTAG00000051724, ADAM18, NRG3).

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is widely used to identify the causative mutations underlying diverse human diseases, including cancers, which can be useful for discovering the diagnostic and therapeutic targets. Currently, a number of single-nucleotide variant (SNV)-calling algorithms are available; however, there is no tool for visualizing the recurrent and phenotype-specific mutations for general researchers. In this study, in order to support defining the recurrent mutations or phenotype-specific mutations from NGS data of a group of cancers with diverse phenotypes, we aimed to develop a user-friendly tool, named mutation arranger for defining phenotype-related SNV (MAP). MAP is a user-friendly program with multiple functions that supports the determination of recurrent or phenotype-specific mutations and provides graphic illustration images to the users. Its operation environment, the Microsoft Windows environment, enables more researchers who cannot operate Linux to define clinically meaningful mutations with NGS data from cancer cohorts.

Rapid development of next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology is available to study microbes in genomic level. This NGS has been widely used in DNA/RNA sequencing for genome sequencing, metagenomics, and transcriptomics. The food microbiology area could be categorized into three groups. Food microbes including probiotics and food-borne pathogens are studied in genomic level using NGS for microbial genomics. While food fermentation or food spoilage are more complicated, their genomic study needs to be done with metagenomics using NGS for compositional analysis. Furthermore, because microbial response in food environments are also important to understand their roles in food fermentation or spoilage, pattern analysis of RNA expression in the specific food microbe is conducted using RNA-Seq. These microbial genomics, metagenomics, and transcriptomics for food fermentation and spoilage would extend our knowledge on effective utilization of fermenting bacteria for health promotion as well as efficient control of food-borne pathogens for food safety.

With the continual development of genetically modified (GM) crops, it has become necessary to develop detailed and effective molecular characterization methods to select candidate events from a large pool of transformation events. Relative to traditional molecular analysis methods such as the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and Southern blot hybridization, next generation sequencing (NGS) technology for whole-genome sequencing of complex crop genomes had proven comparatively useful for in-depth molecular characterization. In this study, four transformation events, including one in Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt)-resistant rice, one in resveratrol-producing rice, and two in beta-carotene-enhanced soybeans, were selected for molecular characterization. To merge NGS analysis and Southern blot-hybridization results, we confirmed the transgene insertion sites, insertion construction, and insertion numbers of these four transformation events. In addition, the read-coverage depth assessed by NGS analysis for inserted genes might provide consistent results in terms of inserted T-DNA numbers in case of complex insertion structures and highly duplicated donor genomes; however, PCR-based methods can produce incorrect conclusions. Our combined method provides an effective and complete analytical approach for whole-genome visual inspection of transformation events that require biosafety assessment.

본 연구는 콩과 식물인 비수리의 유용유전자를 NGS (Next Generation Sequencing)와 분자생물학의 융합적인 연구를 통해 분리하고 가능성을 알아보고자 시행하였다. 비수리는 자원식물이지만 많은 유용물질을 가지고 있다. 특히 항당뇨 기능을 하는 D-pinitol을 많이 함유하고 있는데 아직까지 비수리에서 D-piniol의 생합성에 관련된 유전자가 분리 되지 않았다. 비수리에 비생물학적 스트레스(가뭄)를 처리하고 처리하지 않은 대조군과 같이 total RNA를 추출한 후에 library를 만들어 NGS를 실시하였다. 이를 통해 D-pinitol 생합성에 관련된 유전자들을 분리하여 in silico 상에서 염기서열을 확인하였다. 이를 뒷받침하기 위해 Blast 프로그램을 사용하여 D-pinitol 생함성에 관여하는 ononitol epimerase를 확인하였고 in vitro 상에서도 RT-PCR을 통해 유전자 발현이 증가됨을 확인함으로써 융합적 연구를 통해 유전자를 찾고 분리하여 발현양상을 확인하였다.

NGS 기술은 전체 게놈 시퀀싱 및 reference 게놈에 alignment에 의해 돌연변이 표현형에 관련된 돌연변이 식별에 이용한다. 그러나 품종 및 계통들을 resequence 하였을 경우 기존의 reference 게놈에 구조적 변이가 보이며, reference와 맞지 않는 게놈지역에서 돌연변이들은 단순한 alignment로 찾을 수 없다. 본 리뷰에서는 NGS 기술을 이용하여 돌연변이체로부터 변이 관련 유전자를 식별하는 MutMap, MutMap-Gap 및 MutMap+ 방법을 기술하였고 지금까지의 연구현황에 대해 기술하였다. 아울러 이들 방법은 nucleotide-binding site-leucine rich repeat (NBS-LRR) 그룹들의 병 저항성 유전자와 같이 구조적 변이를 가진 유전자를 분리하는 등 유용성에 대해 고찰하였다.

Molecular characterization technology in genetically modified organisms, in addition to how transgenic biotechnologies are developed now require full transparency to assess the risk to living modified and non-modified organisms. Next generation sequencing (NGS) methodology is suggested as an effective means in genome characterization and detection of transgenic insertion locations. In the present study, we applied NGS to insert transgenic loci, specifically the epidermal growth factor (EGF) in genetically modified rice cells. A total of 29.3 Gb (${\sim}72{\times}coverage$) was sequenced with a $2{\times}150bp$ paired end method by Illumina HiSeq2500, which was consecutively mapped to the rice genome and T-vector sequence. The compatible pairs of reads were successfully mapped to 10 loci on the rice chromosome and vector sequences were validated to the insertion location by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification. The EGF transgenic site was confirmed only on chromosome 4 by PCR. Results of this study demonstrated the success of NGS data to characterize the rice genome. Bioinformatics analyses must be developed in association with NGS data to identify highly accurate transgenic sites.

Mitochondrial genome is an important molecule for systematic and evolutionary studies in metazoans. The development of next-generation sequencing (NGS) technique has rapidly increased the number of mitogenome sequences. The process of generating mitochondrial genome based on NGS includes different steps, from DNA preparation, sequencing, assembly, and annotation. Despite the effort to improve sequencing, assembly, and annotation methods of mitogenome, the low quality and/or quantity sequence in the final map can still be generated through the work. Therefore, it is necessary to check and curate mitochondrial genome sequence after annotation for proofreading and feedback. In this study, we introduce the pipeline for sequencing and curation for mitogenome based on NGS. For this purpose, two mitogenome sequences of Dermatobranchus otome were sequenced by Illumina Miseq system with different amount of raw read data. Generated reads were targeted for assembly and annotation with commonly used programs. As abnormal repeat regions present in the mitogenomes after annotation, primers covering these regions were designed and conventional PCR followed by Sanger sequencing were performed to curate the mitogenome sequences. The obtained sequences were used to replace the abnormal region. Following the replacement, each mitochondrial genome was compared with the other as well as the sequences of close species available on the Genbank for confirmation. After curation, two mitogenomes of D. otome showed a typically circular molecule with 14,559 bp in size and contained 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes. The phylogenetic tree revealed a close relationship between D. otome and Tritonia diomea. The finding of this study indicated the importance of caution and curation for the generation of mitogenome from NGS.

최근 차세대염기서열해독법(Next Generation Sequencing, NGS)의 급속한 발전에 힘입어, 다양한 가축 종에 대한 전장유전체 수준의 해독 및 분석 연구수행이 가능하게 되었다. 소의 경우 현재 한우, 칡소, 흑우, 제주흑우 4품종의 재래소가 국제연합식량농업기구 가축다양성 정보시스템에 등록돼 있는 상태이다. 이러한 재래유전자원은 최근 NGS 기술을 이용 전장유전체에 걸친 대용량의 단일염기다형성 정보를 얻는데 성공하였으며, 또한 한국 재래소품종이 유럽기원의 소 품종들과 유전학적으로 차이가 있다는 점이 밝혀졌다. 또한 소 유전체학 분야에서 이 NGS의 응용은 유전체의 구조적 변이 특히 종전 대용량으로 정확한 발굴이 어려웠던 전장유전체에 널리 퍼진 복제수변이의 발굴에 성공적으로 적용되었다. 이러한 일련의 성공에도 불구하고 최근 NGS를 이용한 연구는 내재적인 한계점이 있었는데, 이는 연구 당시 고가의 연구비용 및 분석의 난해함으로 인해 각 대표 소 품종의 단수 또는 소수 개체에 대해서만 적용되었다는 점이 그 대표적 예라 할 수 있을 것이다. 즉, NGS에서 파생된 데이터의 보다 정확한 생물학적 의의를 찾기 위해서는 추가 실험적 검증과 더불어 면밀한 해석이 필요하다는 점을 시사하는 것이다. 최근 차세대염기서열 해독 비용이 지속으로 하락하고 있으며, 이는 단수개체가 아닌 집단수준에서의 NGS 적용이 가능해 짐에 따라 다양한 집단유전체학적 이론이 접목된 연구가 가능해지고 있다. 현재 국내 재래소 품종에 대한 집단수준에서의 연구는 극히 미흡한 상태이나, 이러한 상황은 최근 고밀도 칩, 차세대염기서열 자료와 같은 대용량 유전정보를 생산, 분석 중에 있어 재래가축에 대한 집단수준에서의 연구가 일부 해소될 것으로 기대된다.

With the rapid growth of genomic data, new requirements have emerged that are difficult to handle with big data storage and analysis techniques. Regardless of the size of an organization performing genomic data analysis, it is becoming increasingly difficult for an institution to build a computing environment for storing and analyzing genomic data. Recently, cloud computing has emerged as a computing environment that meets these new requirements. In this paper, we analyze and compare existing distributed and parallel NGS (Next Generation Sequencing) analysis based on cloud computing environment for future research.
