  • combine individuals and pool in the same multiplex?

    I want to perform targeted resequencing of genes for SNP discovery and CNV analysis.
    I'm sequencing genes in cattle, mostly working within one breed but I'd also like to include other breed and some bovini outgroups. I'm considering the best multiplex design to maximise discovery on a limited budget.

    By indexing individuals and multiplexing them before sequencing I can assign each sequence to an individual but will need to perform as many library preparations as I have individuals.

    If I pooled individuals before carrying out a library prep I could reduce time and money on library preps but couldn't relate sequence back to an individual, I could only get allele frequencies but not genotypes.

    Has anyone ever combined both strategies in a single library?
    I'm imagining something like Barcodes 1 - 10 = Individuals 1-10
    Barcode 11 = a pool of ten individuals from a different breed.

    There would be issues about quantities of each to put in for the sequencing but has anyone tried or read about a similar strategy?

    Thank you for your help

    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...
