A gene-space de Bruijn graph framework for improved genotyping of antimicrobial resistance genes
… has become an important approach, enabling the detection of AMR-associated genes and single nucleotide polymorphisms. This typically involves assembling sequencing reads and annotating the assemblies for known AMR determinants. Long-read sequencing technologies have greatly improved the …

Knowledge discovery and modeling in genomic databases
… effective and accurate methods for identifying gene structures in the genomes of high eukaryotes, such as vertebrate organisms. Several effective hidden Markov models (HMMs) are developed to represent the consensus and degeneracy features of the functional sites including protein-translation …

Chromosomal localization of a proinsulin transgene inserted with a transposon-based vector into Japanese quail, Coturnix coturnix
… into Japanese quail and provide a method for gene location on avian chromosomes. This research resulted in the development of a different method of obtaining chromosome spreads in Japanese quail, the establishment of primed in situ hybridization as a method for the chromosomal gene detection …

An investigation of the microbial population in aquarium water, using next generation sequencing
… used in the clinic, antibiotic resistant genes (ARG) are widely transferred among bacterial communities. As a result, superbugs possessing several antibiotic resistant genes are a significant threat to public health. Antibiotic resistant pathogens in drinking water or wastewater could …

Detection and description of influenza a virus transmission in commercial weaned pigs in Illinois, USA
… one commercially licensed product for influenza detection in swine. We developed a pandemic Matrix gene detection method via Reverse Transcription Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification (LAMP) to help address this problem. The first study was performed to develop the primers and test the assay's …

DEVELOPMENT OF E-SRS (ENVIRONMENT-SENSING RESPONSE SYSTEM) AS A NOVEL METHOD TO DISTINGUISH GENETIC ENVIRONMENTS AND RESOLVE CLOSELY RELATED NUCLEIC ACID SEQUENCES
… limitations of conventional Nucleic Acid (NA) detection prompted us to conduct a Proof-of-Concept of a novel NA sensing platform called environment-Sensing Response System (e-SRS), which could deliver a physical response upon sensing its NA Target Sequence (NTS). e-SRS is a NA sensing and …

Elucidation of the Molecular Mechanisms That Contribute to Variation in Susceptibility Testing Show the Need for Alternative Detection Methods of KPC-producing Gram-negative Bacteria
… The rapid spread of blaKPC into multiple genera of Gram-negative bacteria, the lack of effective treatment regimens, and the difficulty of identifying these pathogens using current detection methods in the clinical laboratories are the biggest challenges the KPC-producing organisms pose. …
