Objetivos:

Esta disciplina visa apresenta conceitos fundamentais de desenho experimental e análise de dados de metagenômica usando dados de sequenciamento de próxima geração. Os tópicos abordados tecnologias de seqüenciamento, base torica dos aplicativo, bancos de dados públicos e exemlos no avanço da descoberta de novos vírus a partir de estudos de metagenômica, incluindo algumas abordagens tradicionais e uma sessão prática usando o programa GenSeed-HMM.

Objectives:

Course Description: This course introduces fundamental concepts of metagenomics experimental design and data analysis using next-generation sequencing data. Topics covered include rational for experimental design of metagenomics experiments, theoretical basis of the most common bioinformatics and statistical tools used for metagenome analysis, and practical approaches for data analysis using web-based and command line tools and commands. Theoretical and practical classes will be provided. The course will also exemplify some of the advances in microbial ecology and viral discovery derived from recent metagenomic studies, including some mainstream approaches and a practical session using the GenSeed-HMM program.

Justificativa:

O advento de técnicas de sequenciamento de nova geração, trouxe a possibilidade de se sequenciar não apenas um único genoma, mas os genomas de toda uma comunidade de microrganismos de um bioma. A metagenômica permite estimar a diversidade de biológica de uma amostra, o conjunto de enzimas e vias presentes, bem como detectar organismos ainda desconhecidos. Atualmente conhecemos somente uma pequena fração da imensa diversidade dos vírus. O uso de dados metagenômicos e a identificação de vírus emergentes representa um grande desafio em termos de bioinformática. Nessa disciplina pretendemos abordar alguns métodos e ferramentas para o processamento de dados metagenômicos e seu uso para a descoberta de novos vírus, cobrindo conceitos teóricos e sessões práticas.

Rationale:

The advent of next-generation sequencing has brought the possibility of sequencing not only a single genome but the genomes of a whole community of microorganisms of a biome. Metagenomics allows estimating the biological diversity of a sample, the whole set of enzymes and pathways present in the community, as well as to detect unknown organisms. We currently know only a small fraction of the viral diversity. The use of metagenomic data and the identification of emerging viruses represent a major challenge in terms of bioinformatics. In this discipline we intend to cover some methods and tools for processing metagenomic data and their use for the viral discovery, including theoretical concepts and practical sessions.
