SHENZHEN, Kina, 23. september 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Dagens officielle åbning af China National GeneBank (CNGB) markerer en ny fase i det kinesisk-internationale samarbejde inden for genomforskning ved at give forskere i hele verden adgang til en af verdens mest omfattende og avancerede biobanker med det formål at skabe banebrydende resultater inden for menneskers sundhed og bidrage til bevarelsen af biodiversiteten globalt.

Milliardstore CNGB er beliggende i Shenzhen og åbnede officielt den 22. september 2016. CNGB dækker mere end 47.500 kvadratmeter og har en integreret struktur med "tre banker og to platforme" bestående af en biobank, et bioinformatikdatacenter og en levende biobank samt en digitaliseringsplatform og en syntese- og modifikationsplatform.

Partnere fra hele verden har reageret positivt på CNGB's bidrag til det videnskabelige samarbejde og bevarelsen af planetens biodiversitet.

CNGB blev iværksat i 2011 af den nationale udviklings- og reformkommission i Kina og er resultatet af fem års udvikling varetaget af verdens største genforskningsorganisation, BGI.

Administrerende direktør og medstifter, professor Jian Wang fortæller, at CNGB's mission er at bevare essensen af milliarder af års evolutionshistorie og deponere livsgrundlaget fra milliarder af mennesker.

"China National GeneBank udgør den nye generation af en genetisk ressourcebank, en bioinformatikdatabase, vidensdatabase og et værktøjsbibliotek til systematisk at 'lagre, læse, forstå, skrive og anvende' genetiske data," siger direktør i CNGB Yonghong Mei.

"CNGB kommer til at integrere nye tendenser i life science samt avancerede udviklinger i omik for yderligere at styrke funktionen af de 'tre banker og to platforme' – en model der dækker spektret fra ressourcer til videnskabelig forskning."

Trin I i CNGB-biobanken lagrer mere end 10 millioner sporbare bioprøver, herunder fra mennesker, planter, dyr og mikrober, og kommer til at sætte internationale standarder for indsamlingen, opbevaringen og håndteringen af bioprøver.

Bioinformatikdatacenteret har fokus på at etablere et højeffektivt datahåndteringssystem til lagring og fortolkning af biologisk information, og i den første fase har det allerede nået en adgangskapacitet på 20 Pb (20 millioner gigabyte) og vil nå 500 Pb i fase II. Centeret hoster mere end 10 databaser med en søgemaskine, datatransmission og cloud-understøttelse.

Den lancerede digitale platform er udstyret med 150 BGISEQ-500 sekventeringsmaskiner og 1 super sekventeringsmaskine, RevolocityTM, og producerer 5 Pb data hvert år svarende til en sekventeringskapacitet på 50.000 sekventeringer af hele genomer.

Syntese- og modifikationsplatformen sigter på at udvikle en superhøj produktionsmængde og fremstilling ved lave omkostninger.

Den levende biobank forventes at gemme og beskytte omkring 300.000 plantearter og millioner af dyr og mikrober og skal accelerere digitaliseringen af ressourcer for at finde andre innovative anvendelser.

"CNGB's mål er at skabe et netværk for at fremme samarbejdet og kommunikationen globalt og arbejde for innovative løsninger i samfundet," siger direktør i CNGB, Dr. Xun Xu. Virksomheden har indgået strategiske samarbejder med Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), Consultative Group for International Agricultural Research (CGIAR), Smithsonian Institution (SI) og Global Genome Biodiversity Network.

Ved åbningen af CNGB blev der også indgået samarbejdsaftaler med globale partnere Svalbard Global Seed Vault, German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ), Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology, Huawei og Aliyun på området for digitalisering af frø, epigenetik fra børns sundhed og syntese af bakteriofag genom.

Institutsekretær W. John Kress fra Smithsonian Institution udtaler, at oplagring af planetens biodiversitet i genbanker for fremtiden er et af de vigtigste og essentielle tiltag, som forskerne kunne forfølge.

"Samarbejdet mellem BGI, China National GeneBank og Smithsonian Institution opbygger et stærkt partnerskab mellem førende forskningsorganisationer, der vil sikre, at vi når dette mål," siger han. "At vi samarbejder er den største garanti for succes."

Lederen af Genome 10K Consortium, Stephen J. O'Brien, siger: "På vegne af ledelsen af Genome10K Consortium er det mig en stor glæde at overbringe et stort og oprigtigt tillykke til BGI's forskere og ledelse med indvielsen af den innovative og modige China National GeneBank (CNGB)-bygning i Shenzhen. CNGB kan forventes at blive et pejlemærke inden for gensekventering, analyse og datafrigivelse til forbedring af translationel forskning for vores skrøbelige planet. Dermed videreføres den veletablerede BGI-tradition for at skabe åbne og fremadsøgende forskningsknudepunkter over hele verden."
