Going to 300, or going to 2x150? The two aren't the same thing.
But yes, 2x150bp with an overlap gives excellent results. In fact with an insert size of 450bp I've seen the Illumina give better assemblies than 454 can manage.
The cost differential is so large, even if 454 can give better results, many users of our service aren't opting to pay the difference. -
Ah, as soon as we get and figure out how to squeeze MiSeq I'd like to try PE 250 on 400bp fragments. 5-10M reads.

The field of immunogenetics explores how genetic variations influence immune responses and susceptibility to disease. In a recent SEQanswers webinar, Oscar Rodriguez, Ph.D., Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Louisville, and Ruben Martínez Barricarte, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Medicine at Vanderbilt University, shared recent advancements in immunogenetics. This article discusses their research on genetic variation in antibody loci, antibody production processes,...11-06-2024, 07:24 PM -
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) are essential techniques for investigating the genome, transcriptome, and epigenome. In many cases, choosing the appropriate technique is straightforward, but in others, it can be more challenging to determine the most effective option. A simple distinction is that smaller, more focused projects are typically better suited for qPCR, while larger, more complex datasets benefit from NGS. However,...10-18-2024, 07:11 AM
