Hi,
In our lab we are working with allele-specific ChIP-seqs and RNA-seqs. After standard ChIP-seq or RNA-seq protocol we attribute obtained reads to either parental or maternal genome based on available SNP information (there is on avarage 1 SNP per 300 bp).
Our department hosts Ion Proton device - and many researchers use it successfully for regular ChIP-seq and RNA-seq experiments.
I would like to get to know if Ion proton is good enough for my purpose.
Does anybody have experience with allele-specific sequencing on Ion Proton?
Is HiSeq2000 better enough to justify paying 2-3 time more for my experiments?
Best,
Michal

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...04-04-2024, 04:25 PM -
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...03-22-2024, 06:39 AM
