Has anyone experienced failed 454 FLX+ runs when using MIDs and flow pattern B? We have had 3 runs fail (control beads run fine) when using MID adaptors. These are rapid shotgun libraries. I have repeated library construction using regular adaptors and they run well.

The first 2 runs(MID 31 and MID 32)
had no "key sequences". I remade the libraries with different MIDs (MID 13 and MID 23) and they seemed to work--although there are some anomolies in the actual assembled sequence--there is an 8 base sequence complementary to the MID sequence that appears thoughout and was tagged by the assembler as a possible primer.
The 3rd library key-passed at 96%, but gave only 50K very short (175bases) reads in 1/4 plate (MID 34). I remade this library without MID and it ran well (240K reads of avg 770bp)
We haven't assembled this one yet.

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...-
