  • Extremely high cy3 signals

    hey guys,we made some mate-paired libraries following the 5500 lib prep protocol. After the WFA run(every sample looked good), we do the seq run on SOLiDv4 instrument, the sequencing run showed low focal map signals, high N2S ratio(>40%) and imbalanced high cy3 signal. What might be the possible cause?

    You really need to contact tech support. Could be lots of things. Your lamp going out, contamination of your buffers or beads with a substance that fluoresces at the same wavelengths as Cy3, etc.

      There might be an issue with sequencing a 5500 library on the solid 4?

        Because of the A-tail base in 5500 libraries?

          5500 mate-paired libraries run fine on SOLiD 4. It is only the reverse reads on the fragment libraries that have compatibility issues.

            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...
