    solexa adapter sequences for paired end data

    Hi
    I wonder if somebody can help me here....I have got some solexa data (paired end reads) and want to map these to the genome with bwa/maq...However when I did this only 20% of sequences mapped so I gather I want to check/ for presence of adapters in the sequences and then repeat the alignment after trimming of the data.

    Which adapter sequences should I screen for- as this is paired end data I assume its the 5` to 3` sequence for the PE adpter 1 and 2 which I found in one of your posts?
    Paired-end DNA

    PE Adapter1:
    5' -------------------- -----ACACTCTTTCCCTAC ACGACGCTCTTCCGATCT (-) -------------------- -------------------- -------------------- - 3'
    3' -------------------- -----TGTGAGAAAGGGATG TGCTGCGAGAAGGCTAGp (-) -------------------- -------------------- -------------------- - 5'
    PE Adapter2:
    5' -------------------- -------------------- ------------------ (-) pGATCGGAAGAGCGGTTCAG CAGGAATGCCGAG------- -------------------- - 3'
    3' -------------------- -------------------- ------------------ (-) TCTAGCCTTCTCGCCAAGTC GTCCTTACGGCTC------- -------------------- - 5'

    In fasta format:
    >Solexa-PairedEndAdapter1
    ACACTCTTTCCCTACACGACGCTCTTCCGATCT
    >SolexaPairedEndAdapter2
    GATCGGAAGAGCGGTTCAGCAGGAATGCCGAG

    If I had single end solexa data would I then screen for the same adapters

    Genomic DNA oligonucleotide sequences (from previous posting)
    Adapters 1
    5' P-GATCGGAAGAGCTCGTATGCCGTCTTCTGCTTG
    5' ACACTCTTTCCCTACACGACGCTCTTCCGATCT

      Hi cur,

      That is not quite right- you have to use the sequence of the PCR product produced by amplification of your library with paired end primers to identify sequences to screen out. You are looking for sequence between your insert and the flow cell oligo. This would appear in your product only if your insert was incredibly short (or nonexistent)- I suspect you may have sequenced a whole bunch of adapters. What did your Bioanalyzer trace look like? I've found that the molar ratio of amplified adapter sequence (~130 bp) to amplified library is pretty close to the percentage of adapter only reads you get.

      I believe the following is right but others please correct if not:

      Sequence between your insert and the flow cell oligo for Round 1 paired end:
      AGATCGGAAGAGCGGTTCAGCAGGAATGCCGAGACCG

      Sequence between your insert and the flow cell oligo for Round 2 paired end:
      AGAAAGGGATGTGCTGCGAGAAGGCTAGA

      For single read the appropriate sequence to screen out depends whether you prepped your libraries with single or paired end adapters.

        Illumina Index PE adaptor

        Hi,

        I purchased Illumina's multiplexing kit and ligated the index PE adaptor to my samples. However, I soon learned that this kit is not compatible with Agilent's SureSelect DNA Capture protocol (microarray based). I would still like to proceed with the library prep (have not added the barcodes/indexes) but was wondering if anyone knew the difference between Illumina's Index PE adaptor and standard PE adaptors.

        Thanks!!

          Re: Illumina Index PE adaptor

          Hi jsilhavy,

          the adapters are quite similar because the index is added in the PCR step and does not come with the adapters. I attach a file with the sequences that I found in some other post in this forum.

            Hi greigite
            Thanks for the reply- in this case the answer was actually simple in the end- the sequencing service had not sent us the right data. Once we got the right data there was no problem with the alignment :-) what a relief

              Does anyone know the primer concentrations required for SE ChIP library preparation?

              This is the information given in the protocol:
              Prepare the following PCR reaction mix:
              • DNA (36 μl)
              • 5x Phusion* buffer (10 μl)
              • dNTP mix (1.5 μl)
              • PCR primer 1.1 (1 μl)
              • PCR primer 2.1 (1 μl)
              • Phusion* polymerase (0.5 μl)
              The total volume should be 50 μl.
              N.b. only 10 ng of DNA is used for the library preparation in the first place, so the primer concentrations might be lower than for whole genome DNA sequencing?

              Thanks.

                I found the answer in another thread. Just to check, I called Illumina tech support, and they have confirmed the stock PCR primer 1.1 and 2.1 concentration is 25 uM.

                    paired end seq

                    Hi all,
                    Im new to paired end mRNA seq. Are the adapters for the paired end seq same as the genomic DNA adapters?
                    Thanks

                      @kr067: No. Read the pdf posted by clpX above.

                          I noticed that several people were wondering about adaptor and primer concentrations in the Illumina kit. I just spoke to an Illumina tech support person, and for RNA-seq at least, the working concentration for the adaptor oligo mix is 15 uM while PCR primers are 25 uM.

                            Hi,
                            I want to do directional mRNA seq. I have to use the Small RNA Sequencing Primer during the primer hybridization.
                            Does anybody know at which concentration should I adjust this primer?
                            thanks

                              I ordered the following primers from Sigma:

                              AATGATACGGCGACCACCGAGATCTACACTCTTTCCCTACACGACGCTCTTCCGATC*T

                              CAAGCAGAAGACGGCATACGAGCTCTTCCGATC*T

                              (HPLC-purified)
                              *=Phosphorothioate bond

                              However I can't get them working with my ChIP input DNA sample. Have tried varying the number of cycles, but each time after the PCR amplification of my library I only have 2 or 3 ng/ul, whereas colleagues have had more like 20 ng/ul.

                              I'm unsure whether the problem is with the primers or something else. As far as I know, everything apart from the primers is the same as colleagues' libraries that worked. I don't have any Illumina primer to test alongside.

                                PE indexed libraries

                                I'm trying to figure out what the final sequence of an Illumina PE indexed library is and where the enrichment primers and sequencing primers go. Has anyone figured out a schematic of generation of the PE indexed libraries showing all the sequence similar to the one I found on this forum for non-indexed PE libraries (see below).

                                  From Collection to Sequencing: Why Sample Preparation and Preservation Define Sequencing Data
                                  by SEQadmin2


                                  Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.


                                  The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.

                                  by SEQadmin2

                                  Studying ecosystems means dealing with complex, multi-species communities that are hard to observe at scale. This complexity, however, hides many important questions to be answered, from how biogeochemical cycles work and how climate change can affect species distribution to how conservation strategies can work best.


                                  Genomics, particularly since the expansion of NGS, has transformed ecosystem ecology. By sequencing environmental DNA, we can now assess biodiversity without direct...
