  • Adaptors for ChIP-seq libraries

    I have made a couple of ChIP-seq libraries using Illumina's DNA library kit. I diluted the adaptors 1:30 to compensate for much lower DNA input (10-20ng). I will be getting my sequencing data back very soon so I'll know then how good the libraries are. Since I dilute the adaptors so much I have plenty to make a bunch of libraries (not just the 10 the kit is designed for). Once I run out of the rest of the kit, I'm going to try the kits made by NEB that contain all the enzymes but not the adaptors or primers.

    My question: Has any one synthesized and successfully used their own adaptors and primers? What modifications do you incorporate into the oligos? I just spoke with a rep at Illumina and they sell oligo only kits but the smallest kit they have for ChIP-seq is for 400 rxns and the cost is over $19,000!!!! It makes more sense to me to buy a DNA library prep kit for $2800 and dilute the primers. What is everyone else doing?

    Dear JHU-ChIPmaniac

    Even we are trying to use the DNA library adapters, did the dilution work for your samples?

      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...
