  • Optimal fragmentation of bacterial mRNA

    Would any one please share conditions used for fragmenting bacterial mRNA? I am shooting for ~200 nt and starting mRNA conc. is ~75-100 ng/. I am using NEB Next mRNA library kit. They recommend 5 min at 94 C in Mg buffer. However this is for eukaryotic mRNA. I will appreciate if someone could share their success story using this kit with bacterial (E. coli/Salmonella/Bacillus ...) mRNA. I have depleted total RNA using Epicenters Ribo-Zero kit. Thanks everyone!

    I've been successful using the NEBNext fragmentation kit with an incubation of 3 minutes instead of 5. Make sure to use only 200ng/rnx (or less) and pool multiple rxns during cleanup. This has worked well for total or rRNA depleted samples from a variety of Gram negative bacteria.

      Recent Advances in Sequencing Analysis Tools
      by seqadmin


      The sequencing world is rapidly changing due to declining costs, enhanced accuracies, and the advent of newer, cutting-edge instruments. Equally important to these developments are improvements in sequencing analysis, a process that converts vast amounts of raw data into a comprehensible and meaningful form. This complex task requires expertise and the right analysis tools. In this article, we highlight the progress and innovation in sequencing analysis by reviewing several of the...

      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...
