We currently use Illumina's ScriptSeq index primers for PCR amplifying cDNA produced by Wafergen's PrepX mRNA protocol. The ScriptSeq index primers only allow for 48 indexes. Are there any other primer sets with greater than 48 indexes that are compatible with Wafergen's PrepX protocol?

The ScriptSeq user guide provides the complete sequences of the reverse/index primers. If a user so desires, they can order their own custom primers from any good oligo/primer manufacturer and simply use index sequences not provided. Note that ScriptSeq uses indexes 17, 24 and 26 which are not "standard" illumina indexes of the same number (ILMN reserved those for the future). These indexes were designed prior to the purchase of Epicentre by Illumina. -
Yeah. I guess we could just make our own.

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...05-06-2024, 07:48 AM -
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...04-22-2024, 07:01 AM
