Genomics core
Missie
De genomics core is een faciliteit die de ontwikkeling en de toepassing van nieuwe genomische technologieën bevordert. De faciliteit biedt technologische en intellectuele ondersteuning voor zowel wetenschappelijke als diagnostische toepassingen.

An upgrade in sequencing chemistry, instrumentation and software of our 454 GS FLX+ System now generates read lengths up to 1kb (previous 500bp). These Sanger-like reads uncover more of your genome, transcriptome or metagenome of interest and enable novel applications.
The Illumina HiSeq2000 sequencing capacity combined with in-solution enrichment strategies enables cost-efficient resequencing of selected regions in the genome. The Genomics Core implemented the automated targeted workflow on the Caliper Sciclone NGS Workstation for full exome sequencing (NimbleGen SeqCap EZ Human Exome Library V3.0) and custom resequencing (NimbleGen SeqCap EZ Choice) .
To anticipate the continuously growing throughput of future generation sequencers, the Genomics Core computing infrastructure has recently been drastically expanded with the addition of a 480 core, 2.18 TB RAM cluster.
The Genomics Core bioinformatics portfolio now covers the analysis of GS-FLX and HiSeq2000 sequencing data including DNA-seq (exome, genome, amplicon): de novo assembly, detection and annotation of variants, insertions, deletions, translocations, and copy number variations, mRNA-seq: gene expression and alternative splicing and this by applying multiple pipelines: GATK (Broad Institute), CASAVA (Illumina, Inc.), Tuxedo Suite, GS Data Analysis software (Roche, Inc.) etc.
