Hello there,
I was advised to use a High-Fidelity polymerase (I used the Phusion High-Fidelity polymerase). Note that the reaction conditions are slightly different using these.
Good luck,
Joze

Hi there,
I was wondering if anyone could let me know what taq polymerase have they used for the multiplex PCR prior to HiSeq Illumina sequencing? Or what are they ways to chose one

Hello everyone,
I realise this thread is pretty old now, but would anyone be able to attach the Meyer paper? I can't access it without subscription.
Cheers,
Jo

Hi. I have my own customized oligos and I would like to anneal them to make adapters. I've seen many protocols (including the Meyer's one) and I am confused whether to use Annealing Buffer with EDTA or without EDTA.
Now I have the oligos in lyophilized form: in which buffer should I resuspend them? H2O or TE or Tris-HCl?
And for Annealing Buffer:
Tris+ NaCl + EDTA? or TrisHCl only?
I will use NEBNext kit to do the ligation. Will EDTA interfere with the ligation process?
Please help. =(

We've been testing your suggested two-primer system using Phusion PCR reagents, but I'm afraid without much success. We know our adapter ligation works, we're just struggling with the PCR. Would you be willing to share the details of your working protocol with us? In particular the primer sequences (with any modifications) and PCR specifications (reagents and cycling conditions) would be of great use to us. Thanks for your contributions and advice!

This two primer system will yield quality indexed libraries.

Hi All,
We are also planning on using the Illumina multiplexing system to sequence restriction fragments on a HiSeq machine. The prior comments seem to indicate that Illumina's 3-primer approach is problematic. If we adopt the suggested 2-primer approach, should I simply combine the PCR Primer 2 and PCR Index Primer sequences, yielding the following oligo design:
5'CAAGCAGAAGACGGCATACGAGATxxxxxxGTGACTGGAGTTCAGACGTGTGCTCTTCCGATCT3' ?
If anyone is aware of necessary primer modifications beyond this, I'd really appreciate your advice.
Also, is it possible to use additional index sequences, if I would like more than the 12 designed by Illumina?
Thanks very much!

Thanks for your contributions to the forum. We are trying to multiplex using the two primer system you described. Although we have designed the Universal Primer and a number of Index Primers no problem, we're not completely sure what 5' and 3' primer modifications to these are necessary. So far, we've gathered that the Universal Primer requires a 5' phosphate and a 3' phosphorothioate, while the indexing primers don't require any 5' or 3' modifications. Can you or anyone else who's had luck with this system confirm that this info is correct? Thanks in advance!

But i have a new question.
We didn't knew the "single primer" recommendation at the moment of ordering the stuff so we ordered the primer 1.0, 2.0 and the indexes separately. Do you think that maybe we can do an annealing of the primer 2.0 and the index? Or in our case is better if we just go ahead with the three primer system?
Thanks!

The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...-

Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...-
