  • Nextseq500 N's from position 25

    Hi,
    I've been seeing a lot of Nextseq500 runs lately and I found a very disturbing phenomenon. In a lot of the runs I start seeing a lot of N's from cycle 25 onward. The FastQC looks like this:

    This example is extreme but I see it in a lot of cases and it's always from cycle 25.
    Any clue?

    Have you contacted illumina tech support since they are likely going to be able to remotely look at your data and see what could be going wrong.

    That said, are these low complexity/amplicon type libraries?

      I didn't try to contact them yet, I'm trying to see if it's common or related to the library construction first. The libraries have a 9 bp barcode and they are bacterial rRNA depleted transcriptomes so they should have good complexity.

        Recent Advances in Sequencing Analysis Tools
        by seqadmin


        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...

        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...
