GG3 - Genome sequencing of bacteria in undergraduate classes
This bioproject holds the raw data generated by the junior honours (Scottish 3rd year) students participating in the Genomes and Genomics major practical in the School of Biological Sciences, University of Edinburgh, Scotland, UK. The data are from practicals run over several years. The practical serves to introduce students to the wet lab and computational approaches needed to sequence and assemble a bacterial genome. Each year the class is challenged to produce annotated genome assemblies from a number of previously unsequenced bacterial strains. The class prepares chromosomal DNA from cultures, and uses NextEra transposase kits to make Illumina libraries. These are sequenced on Illumina MiSeq or NovaSeq, and the students then perform data QC, assembly, annotation and interpretation.The raw data are split by genome, by year. Note that the raw data uploaded here is unfiltered, and may contain more than one bacterial species (if there has been contamination, or, in the case of cyanobacteria, where the cultures are not monoxenic.
