Journal ArticleDOI

Good laboratory practice for clinical next-generation sequencing informatics pipelines

TL;DR: This research highlights the need to understand more fully the role of Epstein-Barr virus in the development and management of central nervous system disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Assuring the Quality of Next-Generation Sequencing in Clinical Microbiology and Public Health Laboratories

TL;DR: This review highlights currently available standards and guidelines for the implementation of NGS in the clinical and public health laboratory setting, and it includes considerations for NGS test validation, quality control procedures, proficiency testing, and reference materials.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rapid Detection of Genetic Engineering, Structural Variation, and Antimicrobial Resistance Markers in Bacterial Biothreat Pathogens by Nanopore Sequencing.

TL;DR: In this paper, a nanopore sequencer was used for whole-genome sequencing of Bacillus anthracis (anthrax) and Yersinia pestis (plague) during a biothreat emergency.
Journal ArticleDOI

Zif, the zoocin A immunity factor, is a FemABX-like immunity protein with a novel mode of action.

TL;DR: Zif is a novel FemABX-like immunity factor because it provides resistance to a bacteriolytic endopeptidase by lengthening the peptidoglycan cross bridge rather than by causing an amino acid substitution.
