    RNAseq library for polysome profiling (monosome and polysome-associated RNA)

    Hi there,

    I am interested in performing polysome profiling with downstream application for RNAseq of monosome and polysome-associated RNAs.

    Has anyone had much experience with choice of library preparations for monosome and polysome-associated RNAs?

    ribosomal RNA surely is to be more abundant in these samples compared to total RNA extractions? This would lead me towards preferring ribosome-depletion (e.g. riboZero) as opposed to polyA. However PolyA is better for intact fragments and we also intend to sequence total RNA where polyA would be preferred. If we want to compare sequencing between total RNA and mono/poly RNAs it would make sense to use the same library prep?

    If you have any experience in choice of library prep (poly A vs ribo-depletion) for polysome-profiling RNAseq experiments please let me know which method you preferred and why

    Many thanks,

    Love this - good data definitely starts from good input, and poor input can only give relatively poor data. I particularly like the mention of Nanodrop/absorbance based methods for quantification. It's such a toss up if you'll get an accurate reading or what amounts to a randomly generated number, and a lot of library/sequencing related issues can be traced back to poor quant.

    Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing

    I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

    Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...
