  • I'm a beginner! Help?

    Hi guys, I'm a beginner I'm trying to understand next gen sequencing. Basically I'm writing a project up in which I extracted DNA/RNA for next generation sequencing. I'm writing at why I would require high molecular weight DNA/RNA in order to construct libraries. I don't really understand what libraries this means? I think it could mean the sheared fragments that are clonally amplified before using NGS on them, but I'm very stuck. Are there any papers you could link me to which would make this sort of thing clearer?

    Thanks alot!

    Most protocols explain the rationale for using high MW material; that would be a good place to start.

      What would the explanation be? I've not seen a direct reason the protocols suggesting it so far.

          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...
