If you’re interested in generating proteomics data but your organism of interest doesn’t have a sequenced genome to use as a reference database, it is straightforward and useful to collect a transcriptome instead.

The way you generate a reference database has a real impact on the completeness and results of proteomics experiments.

We generated a whole-genome assembly for the lone star tick to serve as a reference for downstream efforts where whole-genome maps are required. We created our assembly using pooled DNA from salivary glands of 50 adult female ticks that we sequenced using PacBio HiFi reads.

We implemented a lightweight method to identify viruses in 342 human brain bulk and single-cell sequencing data sets, and identified two glioblastoma cells from a single patient that contained deltapolyomavirus sequences.

Some human proteins are encoded by genes with repetitive sequences, which, if they expand, damage the nervous system and cause disorders like Huntington’s disease. We found animals with similar proteins that have more repeats than we’ve ever seen in healthy people.

Sensory disorders are clinically common, debilitating conditions. But mouse behavioral models are often insufficient. We demonstrate that label-free, minimally-invasive brain imaging in mice could be a promising avenue for sensory research or drug discovery efforts.

Inspired by wasps co-opting viral capsids to deliver genes to the caterpillars they parasitize, we looked for capsid-like proteins in other species. We found capsid homologs in ticks and other parasites, suggesting this phenomenon could be wider spread than previously known.
