This project was aimed to determine the genome sequence and transcriptome for the HU3 strain of Leishmania donovani. For genomic DNA sequencing, two NGS methodologies were used: PacBio and Illumina. These sequence reads were used to assemble the complete genome, composed by 36 chromosomes per haploid set. Afterwards, gene annotation (CDS for protein coding-genes and structural RNAs) was carried out by a combination of automated procedures and manual revision. On the other hand, to define the transcriptome, total poly-A+ RNA was sequenced using Illumina HiSeq 2000 technology. After transcript assembly, the boundaries of transcripts were determined by mapping spliced-leader (5’-end) and poly-A (3’-end) addition sites. As a result, in this project, we are providing the following data:- PacBio and Illumina sequence reads from genomic DNA.- Illumina reads from polyA RNA (RNAseq)- Nucleotide sequence of the 36 chromosomes.- Annotation data for transcripts, CDS, structural RNAs (rRNAs, tRNAs and snoRNAs).
