2021
9 páginas, 3 figuras. The data that support the findings of this study (Fastq files) are publicly available. Fastq files above the GISAID thresholds were deposited at GISAID (hCoV-19/Spain/MD-IBV-99007733/2020, hCoV-19/Spain/MD-IBV-99007151/2020, hCoV-19/Spain/MD-IBV-99007734/2020, and hCoV-19/Spain/MDIBV-99007170/2020). All sequences were also deposited at the ENA (European Nucleotide Archive; https:// www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/browser/home) (ERR5698024, ERR5697187, ERR6459974, ERR5698025, and ERR5697254).
Rubinstein–Taybi syndrome 2 with cerebellar abnormality and neural tube defect
2019
Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome (RSTS) is a rare dominant disorder with intellectual disability, postnatal growth deficiency, and multiple congenital anomalies. Approximately 50-70% of the patients have a mutation in the CREBBP gene (RSTS1) and 5-10% display an EP300 gene mutation (RSTS2). Craniospinal abnormalities such as microcranium, scoliosis, and lordosis are frequent findings in RSTS1, but malformations of the brain or spinal cord are seen only occasionally. Here, we report on a 3-year-old boy with facial abnormalities of RSTS, broad thumbs and halluces, developmental delay, autistic features, cerebellar underdevelopment, and a neural tube defect. Molecular diagnostic of the CREBBP and EP3…

Developmental disorders (DD) include malformative disorders and neurodevelopmental disorders such as intellectual disability (ID) and autism spectrum disorders (ASD). These clinical features can be isolated or combined in a given patient, they affect around 3% of worldwide population. These disorders are responsible for major morbidity and mortality, for hospitalization especially in pediatric departments, for disabilities and, therefore, this represents a public health priority. Since 2004, in France, several national plans were conducted and extended, the last one being the 3rd National Plan for Rare Disorders (PNMR 2018-2022) which include 10 main goals, among others increasing diagnosis…
Unstructural Biology of TRP Ion Channels: The Role of Intrinsically Disordered Regions in Channel Function and Regulation
2021
The first genuine high-resolution single particle cryo-electron microscopy structure of a membrane protein determined was a transient receptor potential (TRP) ion channel, TRPV1, in 2013. This methodical breakthrough opened up a whole new world for structural biology and ion channel aficionados alike. TRP channels capture the imagination due to the sheer endless number of tasks they carry out in all aspects of animal physiology. To date, structures of at least one representative member of each of the six mammalian TRP channel subfamilies as well as of a few non-mammalian families have been determined. These structures were instrumental for a better understanding of TRP channel function and …
A Friendly-Biological Reactor SIMulator (BioReSIM) for studying biological processes in wastewater treatment processes
2014
Biological processes for wastewater treatments are inherently dynamic systems because of the large variations in the influent wastewater flow rate, concentration composition and the adaptive behavior of the involved microorganisms. Moreover, the sludge retention time (SRT) is a critical factor to understand the bioreactor performances when changes in the influent or in the operation conditions take place. Since SRT are usually in the range of 10-30 days, the performance of biological reactors needs a long time to be monitored in a regular laboratory demonstration, limiting the knowledge that can be obtained in the experimental lab practice. In order to overcome this lack, mathematical model…
Draft genome sequence of Pseudomonas corrugata, a phytopathogenic bacterium with potential industrial applications
2014
Pseudomonas corrugata was first described as the causal agent of a tomato disease called 'pith necrosis' yet it is considered as a biological resource in various fields such as biocontrol of plant diseases and production of industrially promising microbial biopolymers (mcl-PHA). Here we report the first draft genome sequence of this species. © 2014 Elsevier B.V.
All-Food-Seq (AFS): a quantifiable screen for species in biological samples by deep DNA sequencing.
2013
Background DNA-based methods like PCR efficiently identify and quantify the taxon composition of complex biological materials, but are limited to detecting species targeted by the choice of the primer assay. We show here how untargeted deep sequencing of foodstuff total genomic DNA, followed by bioinformatic analysis of sequence reads, facilitates highly accurate identification of species from all kingdoms of life, at the same time enabling quantitative measurement of the main ingredients and detection of unanticipated food components. Results Sequence data simulation and real-case Illumina sequencing of DNA from reference sausages composed of mammalian (pig, cow, horse, sheep) and avian (c…
Spread of the fascioliasis endemic area assessed by seasonal follow-up of rDNA ITS-2 sequenced lymnaeid populations in Cajamarca, Peru
2021
Fascioliasis is a worldwide emerging snail-borne zoonotic trematodiasis with a great spreading capacity linked to animal and human movements, climate change, and anthropogenic modifications of freshwater environments. South America is the continent with more human endemic areas caused by Fasciola hepatica, mainly in high altitude areas of Andean regions. The Peruvian Cajamarca area presents the highest human prevalences reported, only lower than those in the Bolivian Altiplano. Sequencing of the complete rDNA ITS-2 allowed for the specific and haplotype classification of lymnaeid snails collected in seasonal field surveys along a transect including 2007–3473 m altitudes. The species Galba t…
Insights into archaeological human sample microbiome using 16S rRNA gene sequencing
2017
Human body is inhabited by a vast number of microorganisms, collectively known as human microbiome, and there is a tremendous interest in evolutionary changes of human microbial ecology, diversity and function. The field of paleomicrobiology – study of ancient human microbiome – is powered by modern techniques of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS), which allows extracting microbial genomic data directly from archaeological sample of interest. One of the major techniques is 16S rRNA gene sequencing, by which certain 16S rRNA gene hypervariable regions are being amplified and sequenced. However, some limitations of this method exist including taxonomic precision and efficacy of different region…
