  • How to get sequences of Illumina sequencing reagents/spike ins?

    Forgive my ignorance, I am not sure if this is a 'real thing' or if it is of any importance.

    I have the sequences of the indexed adapters we use as well as the PCR primers/oligos for library preparation, but I am not sure of any reagents or primers that go into the mix for sequencing.

    How would I find sequences and/or fasta files for whatever non-sample DNA/oligos such as spike ins or other 'contaminants' (with respect to the reads) may be going into the HiSeq rapid run? Thank you.

    hi ronton,
    Its not clear what your intention is, but this might help you -
    Oligonucleotide (oligo) sequences of Illumina adapters used in AmpliSeq, Nextera, TruSeq, and TruSight library prep kits.

      This is perfect, thank you. The goal is for adapter/contaminant trimming/removal. I am a newbie working my way through sequence analysis.

        Other sequences that you might consider is from PhiX genome library which is recommended to be spiked-in in all sequencing runs for troubleshooting and other purposes. These will appear as reads. Here is a web page with links to genome sequence of PhiX: http://support.illumina.com/sequenci...e/igenome.html

          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...
