My lab has been using the Agilent 50Mb SureSelect Human All Exon kit for many months now. Though the data is acceptable, we can’t help but wonder why our coverage plots look so different from Agilent coverage plots. (see attachment) Do other users produce data that results in coverage plots similar to those advertised by Agilent? If so, do you have any suggestions as to why we are seeing this disparity? Or, are our results the accepted norm?

How are you sequencing it? GAIIX, HiSeq, SOLdD etc? Barcoded? If so, how many exomes per lane? -
These were ran on HiSeq 2000, and were not indexed.Comment

What are you seeing for percent on target?Comment

Also, we are getting an average of 80 million reads for a PE 2x101.Comment

Your curves are consistent with what I see when running Agilent 50M SureSelect with paired 100bp reads.
Not sure what this "Agilent's data" curve you're showing is, but it may be due to any number of things--library prep, Agilent likely used paired 76bp reads (which they recommend), et cetera.Mendelian Disorder: A blogshare of random useful information for general public consumption. [Blog]

Thanks for the input.
Do you see similar coverage plots for Agilent mouse?
We have noticed that the curves for mouse differ greatly from human, using the same protocol, reagents and technicians. See attachment.Comment

I don't understand the Y-axis here. What are you calling "the exome"?
Haven't done Mouse myself. But again, I would not fret over this.
The Sureselect 50M performance is still high over its targets regardless.

Script
Hi,Originally posted by SMO View Post
could you provide the script, with which you have generated the plot shown in "human coverage plot.pdf" ?Comment

The field of immunogenetics explores how genetic variations influence immune responses and susceptibility to disease. In a recent SEQanswers webinar, Oscar Rodriguez, Ph.D., Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Louisville, and Ruben Martínez Barricarte, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Medicine at Vanderbilt University, shared recent advancements in immunogenetics. This article discusses their research on genetic variation in antibody loci, antibody production processes,...11-06-2024, 07:24 PM -
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) are essential techniques for investigating the genome, transcriptome, and epigenome. In many cases, choosing the appropriate technique is straightforward, but in others, it can be more challenging to determine the most effective option. A simple distinction is that smaller, more focused projects are typically better suited for qPCR, while larger, more complex datasets benefit from NGS. However,...10-18-2024, 07:11 AM
