Tn5
Does anyone know of another source of Tn5 transposase other than
FC 121 1030 form Illumina.
Cheers

Epicentre's EZ-Tn5 Transposase; TNP92110, which is a special order item. -
Thank you for the suggestion. Can Epicentre's EZ-Tn5 TNP92110 completely substitute for the Illumina product in terms of primer sequence, buffers, reaction conditions, etc.
Appreciated,

Happy to help - this is just the bare enzyme and users have to load any oligos themselves. Here's the product page link:
Reaction buffer and stop solution is provided; we don't do custom oligo loading.

Hi, gene fuse
Have you tried the EZ-Tn5 from epicenter? Could it be used for DNA library preparation?Comment

Hi,
I have not had a chance to try EN-Tn5.
Olaf Blue might have more info on this

EZ-Tn5 from Epicentre has been transferred for sales and support to Lucigen:

I am finding the replacement of Nextera from Illumina but I am not sure if it could be used for tagmentation. It seems to be mostly used for the gene mutation.Comment

Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.
The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.

Studying ecosystems means dealing with complex, multi-species communities that are hard to observe at scale. This complexity, however, hides many important questions to be answered, from how biogeochemical cycles work and how climate change can affect species distribution to how conservation strategies can work best.
Genomics, particularly since the expansion of NGS, has transformed ecosystem ecology. By sequencing environmental DNA, we can now assess biodiversity without direct...05-06-2026, 09:04 AM
