EBV Genomes

09-18-2014, 02:52 AM

Currently, I'm using the NCBI taxonomy and NCBI genomes that are tied to it to analyse pathogen genomes and reads in human samples. I am particularly interested in looking at EBV (Human herpesvirus 4) and my understanding is there are 8-9 different reference genomes floating around. At least, this is what I've understood from a couple of papers. However, NCBI only contains two genome references in their Virus folder. I was curious if anyone new where to find the other reference sequences for various EBV strains. Ideally, I would like them in fasta format so that I can manually incorporate them into my database.

Also, I'm curious why NCBI does not have the other reference sequences? After all, many of the viral and bacterial genomes are not completely annotated or built, but still manage to make it into the database?

Any thoughts on EBV references would be much appreciated!

Are you sure that the papers refer to complete genomes and not only to some coding genes?

Advanced Sequencing Platforms Tackle Neuroscience’s Toughest Genomics Problems

by SEQadmin2

Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.

Cancer Drug Resistance: The Lingering Barrier to Rising Survival

by SEQadmin2

Cancer survival rates have significantly increased in the last few decades in the United States, reaching a combined 70% 5-year survival rate by 2021. Behind this number, there are years of research to find new therapies, drug targets, and early detection methods. But there is one core challenge that keeps slowing down these advances, and it’s about drug resistance.

There is no single reason why many patients don’t respond to treatment as expected. Cancer is...
