It necessitated design, development, and deployment of a nationwide infrastructure designed for sequestration, consolidation, and characterization of patient samples that disseminates de-identified information to public authorities in tight turnaround times. Here, we describe our development of such an infrastructure, which sequenced 594,832 high coverage SARS-CoV-2 genomes from isolates we collected in the U.S. from March 13th 2020 to July 3rd 2023. Our sequencing protocol ('Virseq') generates mutation-resistant sequencing of the entire SARS-CoV-2 genome, capturing all major lineages. We also characterize 379 clinically relevant SARS-CoV-2 multi-strain co-infections and ensure robust detection of emerging lineages via simulation. The modular infrastructure, sequencing, and analysis capabilities we describe support the U.S. Centers for Disease Control national surveillance program and serve as a model for rapid response to emerging pandemics at a national scale.}, author={Brochu, Hayden N and Song, Kuncheng and Zhang, Qimin and Zeng, Qiandong and Shafi, Adib and Robinson, Matthew and Humphrey, Jake and Croy, Bobbi and Peavy, Lydia and Perera, Minoli and et al.}, year={2024}, month={Apr} } @article{brochu_smith_jeong_carlson_hansen_tisoncik-go_law_picker_gale_peng_2024, title={Pre-challenge gut microbial signature predicts RhCMV/SIV vaccine efficacy in rhesus macaques}, url={https://doi.org/10.1101/2024.02.27.582186}, DOI={10.1101/2024.02.27.582186}, abstractNote={ABSTRACT}, author={Brochu, Hayden N. and Smith, Elise and Jeong, Sangmi and Carlson, Michelle and Hansen, Scott G. and Tisoncik-Go, Jennifer and Law, Lynn and Picker, Louis J. and Gale, Michael, Jr. and Peng, Xinxia}, year={2024}, month={Feb} } @article{brochu_wang_tollison_pyo_thomas_tseng_law_picker_gale_geraghty_et al._2022, title={Alternative splicing and genetic variation of MHC-E: Implications for rhesus cytomegalovirus-based vaccines}, url={https://doi.org/10.21203/rs.3.rs-1633558/v1}, DOI={10.21203/rs.3.rs-1633558/v1}, abstractNote={Abstract}, author={Brochu, Hayden and Wang, Ruihan and Tollison, Tammy and Pyo, Chu-Woo and Thomas, Alexander and Tseng, Elizabeth and Law, Lynn and Picker, Louis and Gale, Michael and Geraghty, Daniel and et al.}, year={2022}, month={Jun} } @article{brochu_wang_tollison_pyo_thomas_tseng_law_picker_gale_geraghty_et al._2022, title={Alternative splicing and genetic variation of mhc-e: implications for rhesus cytomegalovirus-based vaccines}, volume={5}, ISSN={["2399-3642"]}, url={https://doi.org/10.1038/s42003-022-04344-2}, DOI={10.1038/s42003-022-04344-2}, abstractNote={Abstract}, number={1}, journal={COMMUNICATIONS BIOLOGY}, author={Brochu, Hayden and Wang, Ruihan and Tollison, Tammy and Pyo, Chul-Woo and Thomas, Alexander and Tseng, Elizabeth and Law, Lynn and Picker, Louis J. and Gale, Michael and Geraghty, Daniel E. and et al.}, year={2022}, month={Dec} } @article{huang_callahan_wu_holloway_brochu_lu_peng_tzeng_2022, title={Phylogeny-guided microbiome OTU-specific association test (POST)}, volume={10}, ISSN={["2049-2618"]}, DOI={10.1186/s40168-022-01266-3}, abstractNote={Abstract}, number={1}, journal={MICROBIOME}, author={Huang, Caizhi and Callahan, Benjamin John and Wu, Michael C. and Holloway, Shannon T. and Brochu, Hayden and Lu, Wenbin and Peng, Xinxia and Tzeng, Jung-Ying}, year={2022}, month={Jun} } @article{walsh_tollison_brochu_shaw_diveley_chou_law_kirk_gale_peng_2022, title={Single-Cell-Based High-Throughput Ig and TCR Repertoire Sequencing Analysis in Rhesus Macaques}, volume={208}, ISSN={["1550-6606"]}, url={https://doi.org/10.4049/jimmunol.2100824}, DOI={10.4049/jimmunol.2100824}, abstractNote={Abstract}, number={3}, journal={JOURNAL OF IMMUNOLOGY}, author={Walsh, Evan S. and Tollison, Tammy S. and Brochu, Hayden N. and Shaw, Brian I and Diveley, Kayleigh R. and Chou, Hsuan and Law, Lynn and Kirk, Allan D. and Gale, Michael, Jr. and Peng, Xinxia}, year={2022}, month={Feb}, pages={762–771} } @article{nagarajan_cho_gyorke_nagarajan_ezzell_brochu_huntress_harrell_peng_2021, title={Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha-Induced Interleukin-1 Alpha Synthesis and Cell Death Is Increased in Mouse Epithelial Cells Infected With Chlamydia muridarum}, volume={224}, ISSN={["1537-6613"]}, DOI={10.1093/infdis/jiab168}, abstractNote={Abstract}, journal={JOURNAL OF INFECTIOUS DISEASES}, author={Nagarajan, Uma M. and Cho, Crescentia and Gyorke, Clare E. and Nagarajan, Shanmugam and Ezzell, J.

Factors modulating risk for reproductive sequelae include co-infection, microbiota, host genetics and physiology. In a pilot study of cervical samples obtained from women at high risk for STIs, we examined the potential for unbiased characterization of host, pathogen and microbiome interactions using whole transcriptome sequencing analysis of ribosomal RNA-depleted total RNAs (Total RNA-Seq). Only samples from women with STI infection contained pathogen-specific sequences (3 to 38% transcriptome coverage). Simultaneously, we identified and quantified their active microbial communities. After integration with host-derived reads from the same data, we detected clustering of host transcriptional profiles that reflected microbiome differences and STI infection. Together, our study suggests that total RNA profiling will advance understanding of the interplay of pathogen, host and microbiota during natural infection and may reveal novel, outcome-relevant biomarkers.}, number={3}, journal={MICROBIAL CELL}, author={Catherine M.
