  • Illumina Whole Exome coverage

    Before I send some samples off for whole exome sequencing is there a way to check the coverage of the region that I'm interested in?

    Ideally a track on UCSC genome browser or the Savant genome browser would be great.

    Thanks

    I like to load the BED file of the capture probes in IGV and take a look.

    If you go to Illumina's iCom site, go to downloads and do a .bed search. Download the following, you can load into UCSC, Savant, IGV, etc. and take a look.

    TruSeq Exome Targeted Regions BED file

    This gzipped file (TruSeq_exome_targeted_regions.hg19.chr.bed.gz) contains information on the Targeted Exons in the TruSeq Exome product (201,071 regions). It can be loaded into UCSC Genome Browser to visualize specific target regions or to compare with other data of interest accesible via UCSC Browser's tables function. This BED file has 6 columns 1 chromosome 2 chromStart (zero-based) first position of the feature 3 chromEnd (zero-based) first position after the feature 4 name (chromosome:chromStart-chromEnd:gene) 5 length (chromEnd-chromStart) 6 strand (all targets mapped to the plus strand = +)

      Thanks for the suggestion, but to get the data from the iCom site you need an account, and you can't seem to get an account without previously placing an order.

      Is the BED file available on a FTP somewhere?

      Thanks

            Now that I have the Illumina whole exome BED file and a BED file of the region of interest, is there a way to get the computer to subtract one from the other to give me regions that are coding but not covered by the Illumina data?

              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...
