  • Can I use default sequencing primers for Miseq?

    I use below PCR primers to prepare libraries for Miseq amplicon sequencing:

    i7-INDEX2-Spacer- gene_specific_Primer

    CAAGCAGAAGACGGCATACGAGAT TCGCCTTA GTCTCGTGGGCTCGG +gene_specific_Primer

    i5-INDEX2-Spacer+gene_specific_Primer
    AATGATACGGCGACCACCGAGATCTACAC-CTCTCTAT-TCGTCGGCAGCGTC+gene_specific_Primer

    Compared to Nextera adapters, my primers do not include the tagmentation sequence. I tried to look up Miseq sequencing primers, but still not sure whether my adapters are compatible with Miseq sequencing primers.

    Can I use default sequencing primers in Miseq cartridge for sequencing? Does anybody know any website or document to verify that?

    My guess is that you cannot use the "default" sequencing primers with your scheme.

    You appear to have directly attached your gene-specific primer sequence directly to the i5 and i7 illumina indexing primers and therefore lack the sequencing primer binding site, which is actually contained within the Nextera transposase sequence.

    Pages 3 and 4 of the following Illumina document might help you:

      Thanks a lot for your reply.
      Are there any document/post(s) mention that "the sequencing primer binding site is actually contained within the Nextera transposase sequence"?

        You are right!

          Recent Advances in Sequencing Analysis Tools
          by seqadmin


          The sequencing world is rapidly changing due to declining costs, enhanced accuracies, and the advent of newer, cutting-edge instruments. Equally important to these developments are improvements in sequencing analysis, a process that converts vast amounts of raw data into a comprehensible and meaningful form. This complex task requires expertise and the right analysis tools. In this article, we highlight the progress and innovation in sequencing analysis by reviewing several of the...

          Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
          by seqadmin




          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...
