Resolving plasmid structures in Enterobacteriaceae using the MinION nanopore sequencer: assessment of MinION and MinION/Illumina hybrid data assembly approaches

This study aimed to assess the feasibility of using the Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) MinION long-read sequencer in reconstructing fully closed plasmid sequences from eight Enterobacteriaceae i...

Integration of mobile sequencers in an academic classroom

The advent of mobile DNA sequencers has made it possible to generate DNA sequencing data outside of laboratories and genome centres. Here, we report our experience of using the MinION, a mobile sequ...

Benchmarking of the Oxford Nanopore MinION sequencing for quantitative and qualitative assessment of cDNA populations

To assess the performance of the Oxford Nanopore Technologies MinION sequencing platform, cDNAs from the External RNA Controls Consortium (ERCC) RNA Spike-In mix were sequenced. This mix mimics mamm...

A reference bacterial genome dataset generated on the MinION™ portable single-molecule nanopore sequencer

Background The MinION™ is a new, portable single-molecule sequencer developed by Oxford Nanopore Technologies. It measures four inches in length and is powered from the USB 3.0 port of a laptop comp...

Rapid and Accurate Sequencing of Enterovirus Genomes Using MinION Nanopore Sequencer.

OBJECTIVE: Knowledge of an enterovirus genome sequence is very important in epidemiological investigation to identify transmission patterns and ascertain the extent of an outbreak. The MinION sequen...

Mutational analysis in BCR-ABL1 positive leukemia by deep sequencing based on nanopore MinION technology

We report a third-generation sequencing assay on nanopore technology (MinION) for detecting BCR-ABL1 KD mutations and compare the results to a Sanger sequencing(SS)-based test in 24 Philadelphia-pos...

Error correction, assembly and consensus algorithms for MinION data

In my talk, I will discuss my collaboration with Nick Loman’s lab to develop de novo assembly methods for MinION data. We have built a pipeline to error correct nanopore reads using partial order gr...

A novel diagnostic method for malaria using loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) and MinION™ nanopore sequencer

Background A simple and accurate molecular diagnostic method for malaria is urgently needed due to the limitations of conventional microscopic examination. In this study, we demonstrate a new diagn...

MinION Analysis and Reference Consortium: Phase 1 data release and analysis

The advent of a miniaturised DNA sequencing device with a high-throughput contextual sequencing capability embodies the next generation of large scale sequencing tools. The MinION™ Access Programme ...

A single chromosome assembly of Bacteroides fragilis strain BE1 from Illumina and MinION nanopore sequencing data

Second and third generation sequencing technologies have revolutionised bacterial genomics. Short-read Illumina reads result in cheap but fragmented assemblies, whereas longer reads are more expensi...
