  • Scriptminer Small RNA-seq library troubles

    Hi!

    I have a question regarding my small-RNA library results on my bioanalyzer.
    Recording to the scriptminer protocol you should get a peak around 150 bp (including adapters and miRNA (18-40 nt).
    Attached you find my bioanalyzer results on CD4 cells (RIN 9.0)
    Library 1 is totRNA from manufacturer. THis looks just like it should be. The 3 next libraries is my CD4 human cells. Here i have DNA around 150 bp, but i also got a peak around 200 bp. Is this normal? Is it just larger rna fragments in these type of cells?
    I also did a small-RNA library prep in wheat cells. Here my results showed a peak that had an area from 150 bp- 300 bp) Should i just go further with the rest of my samples?

    Hi,
    Just a couple of questions; how do you get the Total/miRNA? I'm not sure about Scritpminer initial steps protocol, do you size select or use another kit (mirVana??).
    The only way to know (I think) what you have in there is by colony screening (before sending to the Illumina machine); so you'll have an idea of potential contaminats in your library (rRNA...) and its proportion.

      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...

      Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
      by seqadmin


      Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
