  • GC content

    It seems that solexa prefer to sequencing higher GC content region. Does anybody face to this problem?

    Yes, we have run into this phenomenon. It is also mentioned here: Dohm et al., Substantial biases in ultra-short read data sets from
    high-throughput DNA sequencing, Nucleic Acids Research, 2008, 1–10
    (doi:10.1093/nar/gkn425)

      Thanks. I also have read that paper, but they deal with beta genome etc.

        Any thoughts on GC content bias on the depth of coverage? I would like to see evened-out depth of coverage by taking GC-content into account; but it doesnt look even from the R linear model linearization I tried!

          Are you sure it doesn't come from the library preparation?
          If you read this article:

          you'll see that in the last purification step, when you extract your PCR from the gel, you can improve A-T rich sequence representation by melting agarose at room temperature...

          Did you try to compare a RT melted sample and a 50° melted sample?

            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...
