Direct next-generation sequencing of virus-human mixed samples without pretreatment is favorable to recover virus genome
12 Jan 2016
Abstract excerpt
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) enables the recovery of pathogen genomes from clinical samples without the need for culturing. Depletion of host/microbiota components (e.g., ribosomal RNA and poly-A RNA) and whole DNA/cDNA amplification are routine methods to improve recovery results. Using mixtures of human and influenza A virus (H1N1) RNA as a model, we found that background depletion and whole transcriptome...
