I recently went through this protocol and used pfu turbo polymerase. I initially tried PCRing with the taq provided in the truseq kit which I believe is phusion polymerase but I could be wrong. That didn't work and I assumed it was because of the U's. But I guess if you have gotten the normal hotstart Taq to work for previous bisulfite products then that wouldn't be an issue for you.

Bisulphite Sequencing Proof-reading or NOT proof-reading?
I'm in the process of applying bisulphite PCR amplicon sequencing to the Illumina platform and wondered what peoples thoughts were on whether to use a proof-reading enzyme in the PCR that can read through Uracil's on a bisulphite converted template (I have only come across these two that apparently do):
pfu TURBO Cx Hotstart (Stratagene)
Expand High Fidelity PLUS (Roche)
OR
Do I continue with the standard hotstart Taq we use in the lab for most bisulphite PCR applications which we know to work very well and gives good amplification products (also I have achieved a good optimisation of all my amplicons with this standard Taq).
Some people say that - With the read depth provided by GAII and above, the level of fidelity of standard Taq should not have a major impact on your results. While there is a tenancy to use a proof-reading enzyme in all commercial sequence capture protocols.
Please help - any comments would be gratefulTags: None

The first FDA-approved CRISPR-based therapy marked the transition of therapeutic gene editing from a dream to reality1. CRISPR technologies have streamlined gene editing, and CRISPR screens have become an important approach for identifying genes involved in disease processes2. This technique introduces targeted mutations across numerous genes, enabling large-scale identification of gene functions, interactions, and pathways3. Identifying the full range...-

Sequencing mRNA provides a snapshot of cellular activity, allowing researchers to study the dynamics of cellular processes, compare gene expression across different tissue types, and gain insights into the mechanisms of complex diseases. “mRNA’s central role in the dogma of molecular biology makes it a logical and relevant focus for transcriptomic studies,” stated Sebastian Aguilar Pierlé, Ph.D., Application Development Lead at Inorevia. “One of the major hurdles for...-
