  1. Whole genome shotgun • Randomly fragment genomic DNA • Select

    for fragments of a certain size • Insert fragment into a plasmid, grow up bacteria to create many copies of each fragment • Sequence from each end of the fragment
  2. Shotgun assembly • Merge reads into contigs as described previously

    • Order contigs into scaffolds • Mate-pair information provides order and approximate distance • Multiple insert sizes can make this much more effective

Craig Venter1 We report on the quality of a whole-genome assembly of Drosophila melanogaster and the nature of the computer algorithms that accom- plished it. Three independent external data sources essentially agree with and support the assembly’s sequence and ordering of contigs across the euchromatic portion of the genome. In addition, there are isolated contigs that we believe represent nonrepetitive pockets within the heterochro- matin of the centromeres. Comparison with a previously sequenced 2.9- megabase region indicates that sequencing accuracy within nonrepetitive segments is greater than 99.99% without manual curation. As such, this initial reconstruction of the Drosophila sequence should be of substantial value to the scientific community. The primary obstacle to determining the se- quence of a very large genome is that, with current technology, one can directly deter- mine the sequence of at most a thousand consecutive base pairs at a time. The process, dideoxy sequencing, used to produce such sequencing reads was essentially invented by Sanger circa 1980 (1), with subsequent mod- est gains in read length, moderate gains in data accuracy, and significant gains in throughput. Given the limitation on read length, researchers employ a shotgun-se- quencing approach, in which an effectively random sampling of sequencing reads is col- lected from a larger target DNA sequence. With sufficient oversampling, the sequence of the target can be inferred by piecing the genomes were sequenced by first developing a set of cosmids or other clones covering the genomes by a process called physical map- ping, and then shotgun sequencing each clone as in (2–4). In 1994, the sequence of Haemophilus influenzae was obtained from the assembly of a whole-genome data set obtained by shotgun sequencing (5). This bacterial genome, at 1.8 Mbp, was much larger than was previously thought possible by a direct shotgun ap- proach, the largest previous genome so se- quenced being the lambda virus in 1982 (6). Critical to this accomplishment was the con- struction of a computer program capable of performing the assembly and the use of pairs of reads, called mates, from the ends of 2-kbp end to sequence next in an interactive walk across the genome. Weber and Myers then proposed the whole-genome shotgun se- quencing of the human genome in 1997 (8, 9). The protocol involved collecting a 10ϫ oversampling of the genome, with mate pairs from 0.9-kbp and 10-kbp inserts in a 1:1 ratio, and assembling this in conjunction with the long-range information provided by a ge- nome-wide sequence-tagged site (STS) map that is a series of unique, 300- to 500-bp sites ordered across the genome with an average spacing between sites of 100 kbp. In 1998, Venter and colleagues announced the under- taking of a whole-genome shotgun sequenc- ing of the human genome (10) with the se- quencing of Drosophila serving as a pilot project. For Drosophila, we set about collecting a 10ϫ oversampling of a genome using a 1-to-1 ratio of 2-kbp and 10-kbp mate pairs. In addition, enough BACs to provide 15ϫ coverage of the genome were to be collected and end-sequenced, effectively generating a set of mate pairs that give long-range infor- mation similar to that provided by the STS maps described above. Drosophila’s euchro- matic genome is estimated at 120 Mbp. Thus, the protocol would require collecting at least T H E D R O S O P H I L A G E N O M E R E V I E W on September 22, 2011 www.sciencemag.org rom
  4. Hierarchical strategy • Construct a set of large (100 to

    200kb) clones, and sequence each independently with the shotgun approach • Clones are mapped and selected to provide an ordered tiling of the genome • Devised to eliminate long-range misassembly and reduce the risk of short-range misassembly • Allows targeting specific regions of the genome for greater sequencing depth
  5. Assembly of the Working Draft of the Human Genome with

    GigAssembler W. James Kent1,3 and David Haussler2 1Department of Biology, University of California at Santa Cruz, Santa Cruz, California 95064, USA; 2Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Department of Computer Science, University of California at Santa Cruz, Santa Cruz, California 95064, USA The data for the public working draft of the human genome contains roughly 400,000 initial sequence contigs in ∼30,000 large insert clones. Many of these initial sequence contigs overlap. A program, GigAssembler, was built to merge them and to order and orient the resulting larger sequence contigs based on mRNA, paired plasmid ends, EST, BAC end pairs, and other information. This program produced the first publicly available assembly of the human genome, a working draft containing roughly 2.7 billion base pairs and covering an estimated 88% of the genome that has been used for several recent studies of the genome. Here we describe the algorithm used by GigAssembler. On May 24, 2000, the public Human Genome Project staged the first “freeze” of all currently available sequence data, co- ordinated by the director, Francis Collins, Greg Schuler at the National Center for Biotechnology Information, Adam Felsenfeld at the National Human Genome Research Institute, and the twenty primary public human sequencing centers (Box 1). Public database accessions for ∼22,000 shotgun- sequenced clones were selected for this freeze, mostly bacte- rial artificial chromosome (BAC) clones (International Hu- man Genome Sequencing Consortium 2001). The sequence contigs were extracted from these accessions and cleaned up as necessary by Schuler. We will refer to these contigs as “ini- tial sequence contigs”. There were ∼375,000 such initial se- quence contigs. The complete public human genome se- quence is not projected to be available until 2003. To get a fingerprint clone contigs. Sequenced clones from a finger- print clone contig are used for the sequence assembly. The May 24 map of sequenced clones consisted of some 1700 fin- gerprint clone contigs, each with an approximate chromo- somal location, plus a few additional contigs that could not be reliably placed on a chromosome. The end points of the in- dividual sequenced clones, as well as their overlaps and rela- tive order along the chromosome, were only very roughly determined in these fingerprint clone contigs. Thus, the prob- lem of clone order needed to be solved along with the prob- lem of initial sequence contig order and orientation. Initial sequence contigs from different clones within a fingerprint clone contig often showed long sequence overlaps, giving strong evidence of clone order, but not giving an entirely unambiguous signal because of the occasional presence of Methods Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press on September 22, 2011 - Published by genome.cshlp.org Downloaded from
