    Sequencing Illumina mate pair libraries beyond 36bp

    Anyone sequencing mate pair libraries beyond the recommended 36bp?

    Thanks,
    Phillip

      Mate pair length

      I recently did a 101-bp run with indexed mate pairs. Rather than cut out a 300-400 bp chunk at the second fragmentation step, I took a 600 bp chunk. So far, we have not seen any odd bioinformatic results indicating a junction-point issue. That said, you can always just trim the ends if it is of concern. I indexed the mate pair and had it in with 4 other bugs that I prepared as paired end. The mate-pair sample definitely was the cleanest of the group, i.e. better quality scores toward the end of the reads.

        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
