Exploring the possibility of using this kit for our hyb-capture library prep front-end process. Does anyone know the specific enzymes that make up the cocktails? As well, is the enzymatic fragmentation random or does it target specific sequences? Is it known what the fragmentation enzymes are? Thanks

My Qiagen rep was just here talking about this. He claimed that it isn't sequence specific cleaving at all but beyond that I couldn't get much info out of him. Showed some data comparing sequencing sites to covaris sheared DNA. They didn't have any company data on what I'd call high gc genomes so he's going send me a kit to try on some 75% GC streptococcusMicrobial ecologist, running a sequencing core. I have lots of strong opinions on how to survey communities, pretty sure some are even correct.

CRISPR/Cas9 sparked the gene editing revolution for both research and therapeutics.1 But this system still showed severe issues that limited its applications. The most prominent were the heavy reliance on PAM sequences, delivery limitations, double-stranded breaks that prompt unintended edits and cell death, and editing inefficiency (both in targeting and in knock-in reliability).
Despite this, “CRISPR helped turn genome editing from a specialized technique into...07-31-2026, 11:01 AM
