  • Failed Index Read - how to restart?

    I have a failed index read on a HiSeq run. I want to put new index read reagents on and go back to the beginning of the index read. However, my run has completed, and the instrument software won't let me choose where to resume the run. Does anyone know a way around this?

    If it's a paired-end read, there's no way to salvage it after read two b/c the index primer anneals to the first strand. If it's a single-end read and you've already removed the flow cell, then you'll have to repeat the sequencing b/c the cluster positions won't align properly to the previous run. Use the rehybridization kit on the cBOT and go from there.

    If it's single read and still on the machine, I think you'd need to remove all of the information (from log files, data folders, etc) for the index read, load the reagents, then restart that run. Unlike the GA, the recipe steps are not displayed during the run so it's more difficult to fiddle with the parameters.

    Good luck,
    Harold

      You can also email illumina's customer support at [email protected], they tend to be pretty good with their own systems, or call 800.809.4566.

        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...
