    Illumina BS-seq library prep query

    Apologies if this has been answered elsewhere, but I've had a glance through the threads and can't see anything obvious.

    I've noted that Illumina's TruSeq kits are incompatible with BS-seq at present because the polymerase mix cannot tolerate uracil. My query is how much of an issue this is to sort out? Is it just a case of finding a different Taq for the library amplification (KAPA do one that seems suitable), or does this also affect the polymerases used to conduct end-repair? What about the polymerases in the SBS chemistry? We'd be wanting to prepare these for a run on a HiScanSQ.

    Thanks,

    Matt

    Publications eg http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19829295 generally use PhuTurboCx for the library prep PCR - as this replaces the uracils with thymidines the enzyme used in SBS, though I assume there are some tricks with basecalling etc bisulfite-seq due to the base composition imbalance - an experienced service provider should be fine with this though.

      Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
      by SEQadmin2



      Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?

      Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating

      New Genomics Technologies Take Aim at Long-Standing Limits
      by SEQadmin2


      Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.

      We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing
