  • Short PCR product sequencing with Miseq

    Is it possible to omit the fragmentation step of the library preperation, proceed with the rest of the steps and sequence PCR products of 90 - 450 bp using Miseq?
    I am just theorising as I have no prior experience in this but need to plan a way to sequence short PCR products woth Miseq. Any inputs are welcome.
    Thank you

    without knowing what your library prep is....MiSeq is spec'd to sequence 2x250base. So if your total product including adapters etc is below 500 bases you can sequence your product using paired ends and stitch together the over lapping sequences.
    you can in theory sequence any size fragment to to the total possible.

      Thank you very much for the reply. I wonder if anyone has attempted this modification before and if there are any publications? I tried to search for it but was not successful.

        what modification?
        Nextera library prep routinely sequences short fragments.
        Just get your PCR product and run it through the TrueSeq library prep and sequence it.
        Like I said, there are many ways to prepare a library for sequencing.

          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...
