  • Pooling multiplexed libraries after ligation, before PCR

    Does anyone do this with the TruSeq kits? Illumina advertised this feature very strongly in their presentations in my area, as a huge time saving feature of the TruSeq kits as compared to the older sample prep kits... yet the product manual doesn't say anything about it. I'm a bit worried about uneven amplification of the libraries during a pooled PCR. Any comments?

    Would that also cause jumping errors and waste of sequencing reads?

      Hi I'd like to refresh this thread. Has anyone had success with TruSeq library prep, if you pool your adapter ligated samples prior to the PCR enrichment step?

        Pooling prior to PCR amplification is not recommended. It precludes the option of adjusting the concentrations of individual libraries to obtain equal read depth.

          Done once. DO NOT attempt it. Some libraries just dissapeared.

            We didn't do that. In theory, it may cause unbalanced library pool. Some libraries could have very low sequencing reads.

              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...
