Briefly, cDNA from single neurons prepared using SMART-Seq4 kit spent 90 minutes at 95°C due to human error. Is the cDNA to be discarded or can it still be used for library preparation with Nextera XT and sent to sequencing?
Thanks

Prolonged high heat exposure definitely introduces a lot of damages to DNA. I would expect it to be pretty fragmented by now. I also assume the Nextera transpose would require dsDNA - thus, you would need to add at least another PCR cycle. Perhaps you could use this S1 kit instead?: https://swiftbiosci.com/products/acc...-library-kits/
If the sample can be reproduced, best dump it.Last edited by luc; 07-13-2018, 05:55 PM.

The immune system’s power comes from its genetic diversity, allowing myriad threats to be neutralized through first recognizing foreign antigens. That diversity is also what makes the immune system so difficult to study. Recent advances in sequencing technology and computational biology, however, are giving researchers new tools to understand immune responses and immune-related diseases in greater detail.
