Statement of Work (SOW)

Project: Bordetella Genome Sequencing

GENERAL INFORMATION

1.0 Scope of Work: Whole-genome DNA sequencing of 143 bacterial isolates (each with ~ 5.3 Mb genome size) with ~ 150X average coverage for the purpose of performing de novo assembly.

2.0 Background: This project will provide the short-read DNA sequencing data for

143 bacterial isolates (each with ~ 5.3 Mb genome size) with ~ 150X average coverage for the purpose of performing de novo assembly, SNP phylogeny, AMR detection/screening, and identify new/novel genes.

CONTRACTOR REQUIREMENTS

3.0 Technical Requirements/Tasks:

1) Provider must perform library preparation, sequencing , and data delivery for DNA samples.

2) Provider must assess/measure the genomic DNA samples provided by the client via a spectrofluorometric assay to ensure that the samples meet quality thresholds.

Upon request from the client, provider must be willing to work with samples that do not meet all quality thresholds, including performing any additional purifications necessary to increase the sample quality.

3) Provider must perform fragmentation of genomic DNA samples and size selection to a distribution chosen by the researcher to fit their experimental needs.

4) Provider must prepare samples into uniquely dual-indexed sequencing libraries using a method optimized for creating complex libraries.

5) Provider must assess/measure samples again for quantity and quality, and then pool samples for sequencing.

6) Provider must sequence samples to the custom read length (minimum of paired end 150 bp) and depth (minimum of 5 million reads per sample/isolate) requested by the researcher.

7) Provider must run samples on an Illumina NovaSeq 6000 platform because this platform allows the provider to choose the sequencing depth to any scale that might be required for this project (be it 1 million or 1 billion reads) depending on any changes determined to be necessary after discussions between provider and client to ensure that a minimum of 5 million reads per sample/isolate is achieved.

This is necessary given that the genomes for this bacterial species is known to be GC rich and complex with long regions of multiple sequence repeats.

8) Provider must guarantee a Quality score for 2 × 150 bp of ≥ 75% ≥ Q30.

9) Provider must transfer all raw data in the form of de-multiplexed FASTQ files and deliver data electronically or via external hard drive upon request of the researcher.

10) Provider must deliver a weekly status report via email by 5:00 pm CT documenting any issues.

4.0 Government Furnished: Purified DNA will be furnished to the provider

5.0 Deliverables / Schedule: Provider will all raw data in the form of demultiplexed

FASTQ files via electronic data transfer or via external hard drive upon request of the researcher.

6.0 Travel: None required

7.0 Contractor’s Key Personnel

8.0 Security Requirements: None required

9.0 Data Rights: Data rights will be transferred to the researcher upon completion of the sequencing project.
