home made EZ-Tn5-Nextera adapter complex?

Hi

Is it possible to mix equal molar of EZ-Tn5 transposase and the Nextera adapter to create a homebrew transposon?

It seems that the transposon in the Nextera kit contain 2 different adapter...

can user do the demultiplexing (truseq)

Hi

Our sequencing core is getting "tried" of demultiplexing the data for us since we put 20 homemade truseq index into each lane:(. They think it is a pain to send 7 x 20 fastq files to us each...

for routine rna-seq, we include hexamers in the fragmentation buffer to save some time, but for special libaries we have to add other oligos with hexamer in a later step like that protocol.

support for poorly annotated genomes

Hi Simon

I do not have a EMBL style genome sequence. I only have the genome sequence file (fasta) and GTF file. Is there some tool to convert them into a format that SeqMonk can use?

Cheers

Bridge amplification, Bst or Bst large fragment

Hi

Does Illumina use Bst or Bst Large fragment (which is 5->3 exo-) in the bridge amplification?

Can one replace this enzyme for just 1 lane to test?

Hi Xile

120 is the after PCR size. the SR pcr primers are 58 nt and 34. PE pcr primers are 58 and 61.

both SR and PE adapters are around 30 nt. So after ligation, only 60 bp were added to the...

Great idea. Some problem might come from the 30 nt common linker.

2. It also put a limit on the size of...
