since we can use double-end sequencing, why do you do and at what situation will you do single-end sequenicng?

Probably is the simplest way to utilize Illumina sequencing. And Single-read sequencing can be a good choice for certain methods such as small RNA-Seq or chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-Seq).

szy0931 single-end reads are cheaper and faster, especially if the sequences you're looking for are already known. For example, we used single-end reads a lot for pathogen detection because we knew which pathogens might be in the sample, and if they were present, we could get enough coverage for the single-end reads.

szy0931 no, I mean cheaper because with pair-end runs you have to buy a kit with twice as many cycles. For example, we normally ran a 75-cycle kit and if we wanted pair-end sequencing we would have needed a 150-cycle kit. So the lower cycle kits are usually about half the price. This saved us a lot of money and we could sequence many more samples.

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...-
