Analysis on Replication and Transcription of SARS-CoV-2 and inhition effect of Remdesivir
SARS-CoV-2, a betacoronavirus with a positive-sense, single-stranded RNA genome, caused the COVID-19 pandemic with unprecedent health and socio-economic crisis. Although its general sense mRNA architecture was reported, that of its negative strand was unexplored. We combined poly(A)-mRNA and ribosomal RNA-depleted sequencing to delineate several fine features of both RNA strands. Together with the transcriptome data under the perturbation of anti-viral drug Remdesivir, this project opens new sights into SARS-CoV-2 replication mechanism and may facilitate the anti-viral drug design. Overall design: Overall 10 samples are analyzed, six of which are Poly(A) RNA-seq and four are Ribozero RNA-seq samples.  Poly(A) RNA-seq samples contain two treatment conditions with triplicates. Ribozero RNA-seq samples contain two treatment conditions with duplicates.
