Assembly and annotation of the pea genome
Last week, the Genoscope published the first reference sequence of the pea (a project resulting from the France Genomics Call for Proposals) by combining several methodologies (short and long NGS sequencing, physical and optical mapping). Annotation of this genome will facilitate the characterization of phenotypes of interest in peas and the selection of agronomic properties of this species.
NF-Y controls transcription
The ATGC platform has published a comprehensive genomic study in mouse embryonic stem cells , that describes NF-Y’s mechanistic critical role at promoters to direct the transcription machinery to the correct transcription start site while occluding alternative sites of sub-optimal transcription initiation.

Microbial resources management
GenotoulGeT and its partners are organizing the 2nd Research-Industry Days on Microbial Resources Management (Narbonne, May 30 and 31, 2018) with the aim of characterizing and managing the diversity of microbial ecosystems to improve their ecosystem services.
MicroScope Open Days
From May 14 to 15, 2018 at Institut Pasteur Paris, the MicroScope Open Days will focus on the use and latest development of the Microscope platform for genomic data analysis.
Tara Oceans: discovery of more than 100 million genes from the marine world
The Tara Oceans expedition (2009-2013) collected plankton samples from all over the world's oceans onboard the schooner Tara, and established catalogues of species and genes on a scale never before undertaken. Continuing the analysis and exploitation of the largest database on the planktonic ecosystem, CEA, CNRS, EMBL and ENS teams, among others, have just reached a new milestone by analyzing the expression of more than 100 million genes belonging to complex organisms ranging from microscopic algae to small planktonic animals.
