    Complete ligation adaptor sequences

    Hello everyone,

    I am producing Ion Torrent sequencing libraries both using the ligation based library kit and the ampliseq strategy. The only adaptor sequences I can find from Lifetech are the ones involved in ampliseq:

    Forward primer (Primer A-key):
    5’-CCATCTCATCCCTGCGTGTCTCCGACTCAG-template-specific-sequence-3’
    Reverse primer (Primer P1-key):
    5’-CCTCTCTATGGGCAGTCGGTGAT-template-specific-sequence-3’

    For quantitation purposes I use the Taqman based qPCR kit. This is however only possible with the ligated libraries. On this basis I assume the double stranded oligos used for ligation contains a longer sequence, than the one generated in the ampliseq PCR.

    Does anyone have this sequence of the ligation adaptors?

    I know this may well, for some obscure reason, be one of Lifetechs little secrets and that I may have to go through the trouble of cloning and sequencing the adaptors myself.

      Hi Apex,

      The sequences of the fragment library adaptors can be found in Appendix D (pp. 45) of the current Ion Xpress™ Plus gDNA Fragment Library Preparation User Guide, as available on the Ion Community.

      Ion AmpliSeq™ Custom Panels may be designed using the Ion AmpliSeq™ Designer website.

        adaptor sequences for Ion S5

        Hi,
        I'm new to Life Tech semi conductor Sequencing and only have MiSeq experience. We were offered a demo run of the Ion S5 and I would like to produce the library beforehand with our custom protocol.

        Can anyone tell me if the Ion torrent adaptors are the same for the Ion S5?

        Fwd: CCATCTCATCCCTGCGTGTCTCCGACTCAG

        Rev: CCTCTCTATGGGCAGTCGGTGAT

        cheers,
        JoF

          Beyond CRISPR/Cas9: Understand, Choose, and Use the Right Genome Editing Tool
          by SEQadmin2



          CRISPR/Cas9 sparked the gene editing revolution for both research and therapeutics.1 But this system still showed severe issues that limited its applications. The most prominent were the heavy reliance on PAM sequences, delivery limitations, double-stranded breaks that prompt unintended edits and cell death, and editing inefficiency (both in targeting and in knock-in reliability).

          Despite this, “CRISPR helped turn genome editing from a specialized technique into

          Proteomic Platforms: How to Choose the Right Analytical Strategy to Improve Detection and Clinical Applications
          by SEQadmin2


          Proteomics platforms are evolving rapidly, with advances in mass spectrometry and affinity-based approaches expanding what researchers can detect and at what scale. As the field moves toward deeper proteome coverage and clinical applications, scientists face an increasingly complex landscape of tools. This article will explore how researchers are navigating these choices to find the right platform for their work.

          Advanced Sequencing Platforms Tackle Neuroscience’s Toughest Genomics Problems
          by SEQadmin2



          Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.
