  • constitution of a reads from single-end sequencing

    Hi, everybody, I am new in the NGS field and this forum, I really have some confusing question to ask. I am sorry if I have misunderstood something.
    The question is, suppose I have my library like this:
    5'---adapter1.1---index---adapter1.2---27bpDNA---adapter2---PCRprimer---3'
    I used Hiseq2000 single-end sequencing to sequence this library.
    My opinion is the 5' of the sequence is fixed to a solid interface and sequencer use adapter2 as sequencing primer to initiate sequencing. If I set the reads length as 49 nt, then I will get exactly 49nt reads with the theoretical structure like 5'---27nt DNA---22nt adapter1.2---3'. Then the primer of adapter1.2 can be used to generate index sequence.
    <1> If I am right, then the first question is why my data don't meet the above theory with a wide distribution of DNA length. (Still 27nt DNA has a large proportion)
    <2> The second question is whether the complementary strand of 5'---adapter1.1---index---adapter1.2---27bpDNA---adapter2---PCRprimer---3' presents in the library and can be sequenced.
    <3> There are also reads like 5'---part of adapter2---DNA---3'. I don't know where do these reads come from. Could it be caused by mixed PCR primer during sequecing?

    Thanks and I am sorry if I didn't make myself clear.

    #1: Depends on the shearing procedure beforehand.

        Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
        by seqadmin


        Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
