  • Long range PCR / purication AMpure XP

    Hi,
    I make a librairies around 6Kb for sequencing.
    I shear and size DNA and I add adaptator by ligation. After each step, I do a purification with 1x SPRI AMPure XP beads without particular problem.
    After long range PCR, I would purifiy with 1x SPRI AMPure XP beads. But something stop an optimal purification during the elution.
    I tested 2 enzyme: Long Amp by NEB and Prime STAR by TAKARA but I have the same problem. The Suppliers tell me there are no incompatibilities between the PCR buffer and AMpure XP beads.

    Does anyone ever had this problem ?
    Thanks

    Could you give more details on the problem, for instance low yield or wrong size. For PCR clean up there is option of using columns as well if throughput is not high.

      Hi,
      the problem is not for instance low yield or wrong size, I think is a incompatibility between reaction product PCR and SPRI AMPure XP beads, because during water elution, beads make a strange heap. When I put DNA elution on Agilent 2100 Analyser or Agarose gel, I see very strange think like smear...
      thank you in advance for your help

        I have not had any issue cleaning PrimeSTAR reactions with beads. Things to consider:
        1- Plasticware
        2- Residual ethanol
        3- AMPure itself

          I'll start paying attention to these 3 points.
          Thanks

            Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
            by seqadmin


            Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
