The CEMIPAI PLATFORM The major aim of the CEMIPAI is to provide tools with high scientific added-value for the academic community and industrial actors of medicine, to validate new therapeutic targets and select new leads. -Bacteriological and virological expertise Search for compounds active on pathogens Characterization of new emerging pathogens -BSL3 pathogen samples preparation for imaging and electron microscopy -Bioinformatic expertise Genetic evolution of pathogens Identification of sequences of interest -Staff training and accreditation for BSL3 Training sessions (CNRS Formation-entreprises) -Supply of BSL3 facility and scientific equipments for academic research teams and private companies CPBS CPBS CPBS CEMIPAI

CEMIPAI : bacteriological and virological expertise Virological and bacteriological analytical techniques for screening of compounds active on pathogens (new targets; new leads; e.g. preliminary screening for anti- HTLV compounds in collaboration with Splicos) Characterization of new emerging pathogens (ongoing collaborations with CHU, EFS, Pasteur Institute of Cambodia) Detailed study of the mechanism of action of antiviral compounds (e.g. academic collaboration with chemists at IBMM) High performance screening of anti-infectious molecules (50000 molecules/month; screening capacities availble mid-2014) Robot Zephyr SPE de CALIPER
CEMIPAI : BSL3; Pathogen samples preparation; Photonic imaging; Flow cytometry; Dynamic imaging; Electron microscopy Morphological analyses of viruses, bacteria, organelles (resolution 0,4 nm) Immunolocalization of several epitopes specific of the pathogens Negative staining on ultrathin slices Samples observation at the Montpellier CRIC facility 60 nm 1 2 4 0 0 n m 3 4 The CEMIPAI videomicroscope will be equipped with an incubation device allowing long term cell imaging experiments to test bacteria and viral cell infectivity. Multiple excitation and emission will allow simultaneous multicolour imaging at a single molecule sensitivity levelusing an EM-CCD camera. This equipment will be suitable for TIRF and PALM experiments 6 0 n m 5 6 7 1 : Bourgeonnement de VIH-1 à la membrane plasmique d un lymphocyte 2 : Coupes ultrafines de bactéries Gram négatif 3 : Immunomarquage anti p6, sur VIH- 1 4 : Virus Chikungunya à la surface de cellules HEK293T 5 : Capside isolée du VIH-1 après coloration négative 6 : Exocytose de BSA couplée à de l or colloïdal 7 : Mise à l échelle d une grille portant des coupes d Epon par rapport à une pièce de un centime (Gay &.Briant CPBS)
CEMIPAI : bioinformatic expertise Genetic evolution of pathogens Functional annotation of genomic data :DNA sequence annotation; Protein description; NGS data analysis; bioinformatic network integration; phylogenetic analysis (e.g. first annotated sequence of the parasite Babesia microti) Static and dynamic modeling of infectious diseases:evaluation of genetic diversity; phylogeography; multiple timescale modeling; standards and models for data integration (e.g; Dengue virus epidemic in Indonesia; Seasonal epidemic of H1N1 in Thailand; Molecular epidemiology of H5N1 in Cambodia; Molecular epidemiology of RSV, HRV and Chikungunya virus in South-Est Asia; HFMD in Vietnam; Molecular biology and typing of scrub typhus in South Est Asia) 825 928 145 443 924 472 438 978 492 998 816 835 806 998 908 988 Identification of molecular targets : genetic markers identification; diagnostic target; drug resistance and susceptibility (e.g; Artemisin resitance of Plasmodium falciparum in Cambodia) Molecular data integration (polymorphism characterization; multiple sequence comparison; modeling; integration to clinical and epidemiological data (e.g; Dengue virus diversity in South-Est Asia; Modeling of knowledge transfer and translation in public health in Cambodia ) Quality control at genetic level (e.g; Design of new DNA primers) Management of genetic informations
