  • Why so short readlength?

    Hi all,compared to SBS,SBL has a much shorter read length(SOLiDv4‘s 50 to Hiseq 2000’s 1000).Which causes this disadvange?

  • #2
    the HiSeq 2000 has max read length 100bp (paired end: 2x100bp)
    the SOLiD 5500xl has max read length 75bp (paired end: 2x60bp)

    as you said, the difference lies within the method (SBS vs. SBL). at the moment ABi can only ensure 12 or so ligation cycles without obtaining bad read quality at the end. but they most likely are working on the chemistry to further improve this.

      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...

      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...
