Technologies for second-generation sequencing provided a major breakthrough of the genome, making its use a landmark that has revolutionized biology. These platforms are characterized by a reduction in sequencing time, high data production and low cost per base sequenced, however, these devices produce data mostly consist of short readings which represents a major challenge for reconstruction of the genome due to this new feature readings of computational tools had to be developed to accomplish the task of assembling their example we Velvet, AllPaths, Abyss, SOAPdenovo2, Edena. However, most of these applications are executed through command lines extended and composed of several parameters must follow the standard syntax to use, because in case of errors in the syntax is the possibility of not obtaining the best result, with the aim of solve this problem we present the AutoAssemblyD that besides providing the use of these assemblers through a graphical interface also enables the management of these executions remotely.

The emergence of high throughput sequencing (HTS) platforms increased the amount of data making feasible to obtaining complete genomes. Despite the advantages and the throughput produced by these platforms, the high or low genomic coverage in the regions of the genome can be related to GC content. This GC bias may affect genomic analyzes and the genomic/transcriptomic analysis based on de novo and reference approach. In addition, the ways to evaluate the GC bias should be fit to data with different profiles of the GC vs coverage relationship, such as linear and quadratic. Thus, this work proposes the use of Pearson's Correlation Coefficient (r) to analyze the correlation between GC content and coverage, allowing to identify the strength of linear correlation and detect nonlinear associations, beyond identify a relationship between GC bias and sequencing platforms. The positive and negative signs of r also allow us to infer directly and inversely proportional relationships, respectively. To evaluate the bias, we used the data of Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis obtained from different sequencing technologies to identify if the CG bias is related to used platforms.

Caracterização molecular e relação filogenética do genoma completo dos arbovírus Bussuquara, Iguape, Ilhéus e Rocio (Família Flaviviridae, Gênero Flavivirus)
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2009-11-27) MEDEIROS, Daniele Barbosa de Almeida; NUNES, Márcio Roberto Teixeira; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0299116892743368; VASCONCELOS, Pedro Fernando da Costa; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0973550817356564
Flaviviruses have been known due their complex biological cycle and their relevance in public health and global economy. The ecologic aspected and clinic pictures are related with phylogeny and evolution of flaviviruses. This work aims the molecular characterization of Bussuquara (BSQV), Iguape (IGUV), Ilheus (VILH) e Rocio (VROC) flaviviruses genomes, determining their phylogenetic relationships with others members of genus Flavivirus. The study included: the full-length sequencing of the four Brazilian flaviviruses; analyzes of the predictive secondary structure of RNA and conserved sequences in the 3’NCR; determination of cleavage and glicosilation sites, cisteine residues and conserved motifs in the polyprotein; and similarity and phylogenetic analyzes. The BSQV, IGUV, VILH and VROC genomes present 10815 nt, 10922 nt, 10775 nt, and 10794 nt, respectively. The conserved standard sequences in 3’NCR of BSQV was RCS2-CS2-CS1, while to IGUV, ILHV and ROCV were CS3-RCS2-CS2-CS1. The secondary structure of RNA obtained for the Brazilian flaviviruses were similar to the other flaviviruses. The numbers of the glicosilation sites to PrM, E and NS1 proteins were distinct among the studied Brazilian flaviviruses, therefore the pattern 6,12,12 Cis residues and the cleavage sites were conserved. In the E protein, some singles mutations were observed in fusion peptide of BSQV, IGUV and ROCV, and the RGD motif were distinct for the flaviviruses under study. The motif that determines the MTase-SAM activity in NS5, as well as the helicase and protease activity in NS3 were conserved. Among the eight polimerase motifs in NS5, only the V, VI and VII motifs were observed single mutations in ILHV and ROCV. The similarity analyzes showed that BSQV presents high relationship with VIGU, while ILHV and ROV were more related among themselves, however those viruses were considerated distincts species. Based in the phylogenetic analyzes, molecular and biological characteristics, it was proposed the establishment of three distinct genetic groups: the Rocio group, grouping ILHV and ROCV, Bussuquara group formed by BSQV and Naranjal virus; and Aroa group, that include Aroa virus and IGUV.
