  • Sequencing Illumina mate pair libraries beyond 36bp

    Anyone sequencing mate pair libraries beyond the recommended 36bp?

    Thanks,
    Phillip

    I was thinking about doing the same thing as well, has anyone tried this ?

    Thanks

      Mate pair length

      I recently did a 101-bp run with indexed mate pairs. Rather than cut out a 300-400 bp chunk at the second fragmentation step, I took a 600 bp chunk. So far, we have not seen any odd bioinformatic results indicating a junction-point issue. That said, you can always just trim the ends if it is of concern. I indexed the mate pair and had it in with 4 other bugs that I prepared as paired end. The mate-pair sample definitely was the cleanest of the group, i.e. better quality scores toward the end of the reads.

        Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
        by seqadmin


        The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist on Modified Bases...

        Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
        by seqadmin


        Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...
