  • TruSeq library size

    Hi all,

    I'm setting up a library prep using TruSeq DNA sample enrichment kits, I've sheared the DNA using Covaris and have run the product on a bioanalyzer. My library peaks seem to be around the 55-0600bp mark whereas previously I would get them nearer 300bp. I'm planning to sequence on an illumiina GA11x with 110bp read length, does anyone one have an idea if these fragments need to be sheared again to make them smaller or are they OK?

    Thanks in advance for any help - H

    Should be OK. And as a bonus, if you sequence in both directions you'll get a nice long insert which should help with mapping or assembly.

        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...
