Advancements in molecular biology have revolutionized the identification and characterization of bacteria, with multiple methods leveraging DNA sequencing for enhanced precision. As sequencing technologies improve and costs decline, these approaches are increasingly used in clinical, environmental, and evolutionary studies.Multilocus Sequence Typing (MLST) examines several housekeeping genes, essential chromosomal genes encoding cellular functions, to distinguish strains. Approximately...

RNA-seq

12.4K
RNA sequencing, or RNA-Seq, is a high-throughput sequencing technology used to study the transcriptome of a cell. Transcriptomics helps to interpret the functional elements of a genome and identify the molecular constituents of an organism. Additionally, it also helps in understanding the development of an organism and the occurrence of diseases. 
Before the discovery of RNA-seq, microarray-based methods and Sanger sequencing were used for transcriptome analysis. However, while...

Area of Science:

  • Immunology
  • Genomics
  • Vaccinology

Background:

  • Adjuvants enhance vaccine-induced immune responses, particularly antibody production by B cells.
  • Long-lived humoral immunity relies on B cell activation, differentiation, and antibody affinity maturation.
  • High-throughput sequencing (HTS) offers a powerful tool to analyze the adaptive immune repertoire.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To overview strategies for high-throughput sequencing (HTS) of immunoglobulin heavy (IgH) and light (IgL) chain loci.
  • To address challenges in applying HTS to multi-armed, multiplexed in vivo experiments.
  • To guide the analysis of dynamic humoral immune repertoire responses to vaccination.

Main Methods:

  • High-throughput sequencing (HTS) of IgH and IgL complementary determining regions (CDRs).
  • Application of HTS methodologies to multi-armed in vivo experimental designs.
  • Bioinformatic strategies for quantitation, sequence fidelity, bar-coding, and multiplexing.

Main Results:

  • HTS provides an unprecedented view of humoral immune repertoire dynamics post-vaccination.
  • Careful coordination of sample preparation and bioinformatics is crucial for HTS success.
  • Established strategies facilitate the analysis of adaptive immune complex loci in complex experiments.

Conclusions:

  • HTS is a valuable tool for dissecting vaccine-induced immune responses.
  • Standardized HTS and bioinformatics approaches are essential for reliable repertoire analysis.
  • This work provides a framework for utilizing HTS in vaccine research and development.
