Hello, I have tried to set up a experiment following the ATAC-seq protocol. when I ran the qPCR side reaction to decide the cycle for library amplification, I met the problem.
The protocol uses Y-axis Rn 5000 RF as the threshold to decide the # of cycle since it is corresponded to ¼ of maximum fluorescent intensity.
In my experiment, I have tried cells # from 50,000 to 1,000,000 (the concentration of start PCR template DNA is 50 ng to 300 ng) but the maximum RF is around 200 RF(the amplification curve is fine). Should I only set 40 or 50 RF as threshold? (The correspond cycle is around 5.)
Has any one have similar issue? Could anyone help me here?
