Abstract:
Salmonella is one of the most important pathogens of mankind and animals alike, causing several billion pounds worth of damage worldwide each year. We have sequenced, annotated and published 4 genomes of Salmonella of well-defined virulence in farm animals. This provides valuable measures of intraserovar diversity and opportunities to formally link genotypes to phenotypes in target animals. Specifically, we have examined pathway detrition and mutagenesis and linked this to host specificity of the serovars. With the advent of next generation sequencing there has been a boom in genomic sequence

With the new way of sequencing by NGS new tools had to be developed to be able to work with new data formats and to handle the larger data sizes compared to the previous techniques but also to check the accuracy of the data. Coverage analysis is one important quality control for NGS data, the coverage indicates how many times each base pair has been sequenced and thus how trustworthy each base call is. For clinical purposes every base of interest must be quality controlled as one wrong base call could affect the patient negatively. The softwares used for coverage analysis with enough accuracy

There are multiple genome-wide association study (GWAS) for sporadic ALS, but usually a large number nominated SNP can hardly be replicated in larger cohort analysis. Also majority of GWAS SNP lie within noncoding region of genome, imposing a huge challenge to study their biological role in ALS pathology. With the rapid development of next-generation sequencing technology, we a

Abstract:
La spermatogenèse est un processus complexe qui dépend de la coopération de nombreux gènes. Son produit final le spermatozoïde, est un sujet d’étude idéal car il renferme à la fois des indices d’événements passés ainsi que des informations qui seront transmises à l'ovocyte lors de la fécondation. L'identification de nouveaux acteurs de la spermatogenèse, des modifications spécifiques de l'ADN du sperme ou la présence de transcrits spécifiques pourraient servir comme biomarqueurs dans le diagnostic de l’infertilité. Cette thèse avait pour but d’analyser le génome, le transcriptome et l’épigénom

L'objectif de mon travail de thèse était de développer des outils bio informatiques permettant d'améliorer la traditionnelle gestion de l'information scientifique au sein d'un grand centre de recherche et en particulier au sein d'une plateforme de génomique. Trois outils ont été développés: un cahier de laboratoire électronique, un système de gestion de l'information de laboratoire pour des applications de génomique dont le séquençage de nouvelle génération, ainsi qu'un système de gestion des échantillons pour de grandes bio-banques. Ce travail a été réalisé en étroite collaboration avec des b

Abstract:
Gene activity is regulated at two separate layers. Through structural and chemical properties of DNA – the primary layer of encoding – local signatures may enable, or disable, the binding of proteins or complexes of them with regulatory potential to the DNA. At a higher level – the structural layer of encoding – gene activity is regulated through the properties of higher order DNA structure, chromatin, and chromosome organization. Cells with abnormal chromosome compaction or organization, e.g. cancer cells, may thus have perturbed regulatory activities resulting in abnormal gene activity. Henc

Abstract:
The main theme of this thesis research is concerned with developing a computational pipeline for processing Next-generation RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) data. RNA-seq experiments generate tens of millions of short reads for each DNA/RNA sample. The alignment of a large volume of short reads to a reference genome is a key step in NGS data analysis. Although storing alignment information in the Sequence Alignment/Map (SAM) or Binary SAM (BAM) format is now standard, biomedical researchers still have difficulty accessing useful information. In order to assist biomedical researchers to conveniently ac
