Whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS) is becoming an increasingly accessible technique, used widely for both fundamental and disease-oriented research. Library preparation methods benefit from a variety of available kits, polymerases and bisulfite conversion protocols. Although some steps in the procedure, such as PCR amplification, are known to introduce biases, a systematic evaluation of biases in WGBS strategies is missing. We perform a comparative analysis of several commonly used pre- and post-bisulfite WGBS library preparation protocols for their performance and quality of sequencing outputs. Our results show that bisulfite conversion per se is the main trigger of pronounced sequencing biases, and PCR amplification builds on these underlying artefacts. The majority of standard library preparation methods yield a significantly biased sequence output and overestimate global methylation. Importantly, both absolute and relative methylation levels at specific genomic regions vary substantially

cDNA library construction and isolation of genes for candidate vaccine antigens from Chrysomya bezziana (the Old World Screwworm fly)

Library preparation for next-generation sequencing involves a coordinated series of enzymatic reactions to produce a random, representative collection of adapter modified DNA fragments within a specific range of fragment sizes. The success of next-generation sequencing is contingent on this proper processing of DNA or RNA sample. However as you go from isolating nucleic acid to…

Enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC) O157:H7 can cause serious gastrointestinal and systemic disease in humans following direct or indirect exposure to the bacterium excreted in ruminant feces. The main colonization site of EHEC O157:H7 in cattle is the terminal rectum where the bacteria intimately attach to the epithelium and multiply in the intestinal mucus. This study aimed to identify genomic regions of EHEC O157:H7 that contribute to colonization and multiplication at this site. A bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) library was generated from a derivative of the sequenced E. coli O157:H7 Sakai strain. The library contains 1152 clones averaging 150 kbp. To verify the library, clones containing a complete locus of enterocyte effacement (LEE) were identified by DNA hybridization. In line with a previous report, these did not confer a type III secretion capacity to the K-12 host strain. However, conjugation of one of the BAC clones into a strain containing a partial LEE deletion restored type III

Custom-defined oligonucleotide collections have a broad range of applications in fields of synthetic biology, targeted sequencing, and cytogenetics. Also, they are used to encode information for technologies like RNA interference, protein engineering and DNA-encoded libraries. High-throughput parallel DNA synthesis technologies developed for the manufacture of DNA microarrays can produce libraries of large numbers of different oligonucleotides, but in very limited amounts. Here, we compare three approaches to prepare large quantities of single-stranded oligonucleotide libraries derived from microarray synthesized collections. The first approach, alkaline melting of double-stranded PCR amplified libraries with a biotinylated strand captured on streptavidin coated magnetic beads results in little or no non-biotinylated ssDNA. The second method wherein the phosphorylated strand of PCR amplified libraries is nucleolyticaly hydrolyzed is recommended when small amounts of libraries are needed. The third

Although RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) has become the most advanced technology for transcriptome analysis, it also confronts various challenges. As we all know, the workflow of RNA-seq is extremely complicated and it is easy to produce bias. This may damage the quality of RNA-seq dataset and lead to an incorrect interpretation for sequencing result. Thus, our ...

Viruses strongly influence microbial population dynamics and ecosystem functions. However, our ability to quantitatively evaluate those viral impacts is limited to the few cultivated viruses and double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) viral genomes captured in quantitative viral metagenomes (viromes). This leaves the ecology of non-dsDNA viruses nearly unknown, including single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) viruses that have been frequently observed in viromes, but not quantified due to amplification biases in sequencing library preparations (Multiple Displacement Amplification, Linker Amplification or Tagmentation).Here we designed mock viral communities including both ssDNA and dsDNA viruses to evaluate the capability of a sequencing library preparation approach including an Adaptase step prior to Linker Amplification for quantitative amplification of both dsDNA and ssDNA templates. We then surveyed aquatic samples to provide first estimates of the abundance of ssDNA viruses.Mock community experiments confirmed ...

Detailed characterization and mapping of oligonucleotide function in vivo is generally a very time consuming effort that only allows for hypothesis driven subsampling of the full sequence to be analysed. Recent advances in deep sequencing together with highly efficient parallel oligonucleotide synthesis and cloning techniques have, however, opened up for entirely new ways to map genetic function in vivo. Here we present a novel, optimized protocol for the generation of universally applicable, barcode labelled, plasmid libraries. The libraries are designed to enable the production of viral vector preparations assessing coding or non-coding RNA function in vivo. When generating high diversity libraries, it is a challenge to achieve efficient cloning, unambiguous barcoding and detailed characterization using low-cost sequencing technologies. With the presented protocol, diversity of above 3 million uniquely barcoded adeno-associated viral (AAV) plasmids can be achieved in a single reaction through ...

ChIPmentation combines chromatin immunoprecipitation with on-bead tagmentation for rapid and highly robust ChIP-seq library preparation. Chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (ChIP-seq) is widely used to map histone marks and transcription factor binding throughout the genome. Here we present ChIPmentation, a method that combines chromatin immunoprecipitation with sequencing library preparation by Tn5 transposase (tagmentation). ChIPmentation introduces sequencing-compatible adaptors in a single-step reaction directly on bead-bound chromatin, which reduces time, cost and input requirements, thus providing a convenient and broadly useful alternative to existing ChIP-seq protocols.

EMD Millipore today launched PureGenome™ kits and reagents for rapid and efficient Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) sample preparation. The kits enable NGS library preparation in less than two hours.

Sequencing from a normalized cDNA library of onion revealed 59.9% unique sequences, one of the highest values reported for plant EST collections (Table 1). Large-scale sequencing at TIGR from tissue-specific nonnormalized tomato cDNA libraries revealed ,40% unique ESTs when sequencing ,20,000 random clones. Sampling of EST data sets at TIGR has shown that sequencing fewer clones from different nonnormalized libraries reduced the redundancy to 50% and sequencing from normalized animal cDNA libraries reduced the redundancy to ,30% (Smith et al., 2001). Given continually lower sequencing costs, it may be more cost-effective to sequence fewer random clones from numerous nonnormalized libraries to maximize the return on each sequencing reaction. However, the cost of synthesizing numerous cDNA libraries must be considered, and this approach may not reveal large numbers of relatively low-copy transcripts.. Our onion ESTs represent the first large collection of non-Poales expressed sequences for the ...

Next generation sequencing has quickly become the preferred method over tiling arrays for most genomics and transcriptomics needs. The major exception has been the study of microRNAs, where highly sensitive probe arrays such as the 3D-Gene® miRNA profiling platform are still widely used. A large part of the reason for the persistence of array dominance in small RNA expression profiling is caused by the variability introduced in sequencing library prep protocols involving complicated hands-on PAGE purification steps.. The CleanTag™ Ligation Kit for Small RNA Library Preparation now allows users to remove the Gel Purification steps from their protocols and shift to more automated bead purification protocols. This is particularly important for cases when RNA quantity is limiting. Traditional small RNA library prep protocols will result in the formation of adapter dimers (similar to primer dimers) when RNA quantities are limiting, thus greatly reducing the number of usable reads.. ...

Here, we introduce ezRAD, a novel strategy for restriction site-associated DNA (RAD) that requires little technical expertise or investment in laboratory equipment, and demonstrate its utility for ten non-model organisms across a wide taxonomic range. ezRAD differs from other RAD methods primarily through its use of standard Illumina TruSeq library preparation kits, which makes it possible for any laboratory to send out to a commercial genomic core facility for library preparation and next-generation sequencing with virtually no additional investment beyond the cost of the service itself. This simplification opens RADseq to any lab with the ability to extract DNA and perform a restriction digest. ezRAD also differs from others in its flexibility to use any restriction enzyme (or combination of enzymes) that cuts frequently enough to generate fragments of the desired size range, without requiring the purchase of separate adapters for each enzyme or a sonication step, which can further decrease the cost

Transcriptome analysis using RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) empowers a deeper understanding of genetics by enabling RNA expression analysis over the entire transcriptome with high sensitivity and a wide dynamic range. One powerful application within this field is stranded total RNA-seq, which makes it possible to distinguish overlapping genes and to conduct comprehensive annotation and quantification of long noncoding RNAs. Typical solutions for total RNA-seq library prep require relatively high input amounts, in the range of 100 ng to 1 µg, and it is standard practice to remove the ribosomal RNA (rRNA) from the total RNA sample prior to cDNA synthesis and library preparation. Clontech was a pioneer in the development of a low-input solution, RiboGone technology for rRNA removal from total RNA, enabling library construction from inputs spanning 10 ng to 100 ng. We integrated this technology into our SMARTer stranded RNA-seq kits, reducing the representation of rRNA in the final libraries and leading ...

Highly parallel SNP genotyping platforms have been developed for some important crop species, but these platforms typically carry a high cost per sample for first-time or small-scale users. In contrast, recently developed genotyping by sequencing (GBS) approaches offer a highly cost effective alternative for simultaneous SNP discovery and genotyping. In the present investigation, we have explored the use of GBS in soybean. In addition to developing a novel analysis pipeline to call SNPs and indels from the resulting sequence reads, we have devised a modified library preparation protocol to alter the degree of complexity reduction. We used a set of eight diverse soybean genotypes to conduct a pilot scale test of the protocol and pipeline. Using ApeKI for GBS library preparation and sequencing on an Illumina GAIIx machine, we obtained 5.5 M reads and these were processed using our pipeline. A total of 10,120 high quality SNPs were obtained and the distribution of these SNPs mirrored closely the ...

Standardized Nucleic Acid Quantification for SEQuencing (SNAQ-SEQ) is a novel method that utilizes synthetic DNA internal standards spiked into each sample prior to next generation sequencing (NGS) library preparation. This method was applied to analysis of normal appearing airway epithelial cells (AEC) obtained by bronchoscopy in an effort to define a somatic mutation field effect associated with lung cancer risk. There is a need for biomarkers that reliably detect those at highest lung cancer risk, thereby enabling more effective screening by annual low dose CT. The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that lung cancer risk is characterized by increased prevalence of low variant allele frequency (VAF) somatic mutations in lung cancer driver genes in AEC. Synthetic DNA internal standards (IS) were prepared for 11 lung cancer driver genes and mixed with each AEC genomic (g) DNA specimen prior to competitive multiplex PCR amplicon NGS library preparation. A custom Perl script was developed to

Massive parallel sequencing (MPS) technologies have paved the way into new areas of research including individualized medicine. However, sequencing of trace amounts of nucleic acids still rem

A cDNA library is a combination of cloned cDNA (complementary DNA) fragments inserted into a collection of host cells, which together constitute some portion of the transcriptome of the organism and are stored as a library. cDNA is produced from fully transcribed mRNA found in the nucleus and therefore contains only the expressed genes of an organism. Similarly, tissue-specific cDNA libraries can be produced. In eukaryotic cells the mature mRNA is already spliced, hence the cDNA produced lacks introns and can be readily expressed in a bacterial cell. While information in cDNA libraries is a powerful and useful tool since gene products are easily identified, the libraries lack information about enhancers, introns, and other regulatory elements found in a genomic DNA library. cDNA is created from a mature mRNA from a eukaryotic cell with the use of reverse transcriptase. In eukaryotes, a poly-(A) tail (consisting of a long sequence of adenine nucleotides) distinguishes mRNA from tRNA and rRNA ...

I develop and use genomic resources, including microarrays, in studies related to fish health. DNA microarrays allow a researcher to analyze relative expression levels of thousands of genes simultaneously. In my laboratory, experiments involving genomic techniques are used to identify the key genes involved in biological processes such as reproduction, development, growth, and immune responses to pathogens. We also study the transcriptomic and behavioural responses of fish exposed to environmental stressors including toxicants (e.g. pesticides, heavy metals). Some of the genomic techniques that we utilize include DNA microarray hybridizations, quantitative reverse transcription - polymerase chain reaction (QPCR), and high-complexity cDNA library construction and characterization. ...

BACKGROUND: Publicly accessible EST libraries contain valuable information that can be utilized for studies of tissue-specific gene expression and processing of individual genes. This information is, however, confounded by multiple systematic effects arising from the procedures used to generate these libraries. RESULTS: We used alignment of ESTs against a reference set of transcripts to estimate the size distributions of the cDNA inserts and sampled mRNA transcripts in individual EST libraries and show how these measurements can be used to inform quantitative comparisons of libraries. While significant attention has been paid to the effects of normalization and substraction, we also find significant biases in transcript sampling introduced by the combined procedures of reverse transcription and selection of cDNA clones for sequencing. Using examples drawn from studies of mRNA 3-processing (cleavage and polyadenylation), we demonstrate effects of the transcript sampling bias, and provide a

Most of the respondents said their library did not have a dedicated trainer or staff development coordinator at their library. The 18% of libraries with one or more full-time trainers were from libraries that serve larger population. For example, 38% of libraries serving 100 thousand to 500 thousand people and 32% of libraries serving over 500 thousand people have full-time trainers.. A couple interesting notes to come out of the question about in-house training: at least one library focuses training on new staff with current staff only receiving training when policies and procedures change. Another library pointed out that they have staff members train on their expertise, from example youth services coordinators train on youth topics and human resources coordinates safety training, onboarding, and other system-wide concerns.. Libraries do bring in outside trainers, though again this varies by library size. Larger libraries are more likely to already bring in outside trainers or to plan to in ...

The Penn Area Library welcomes the use of its facilities and services by all children. However, the library is a public building, and as such, is not a safe place to leave a child unattended. The library cannot assume responsibility for the safety of unattended children.. Therefore, children under the age of 10 years old cannot be left unattended in the library. This also applies when children are attending programs in the library. Children 10 years of age or older may use the library unattended, subject to other policies and procedures of the Penn Area Library concerning conduct and behavior. However, the parent or caregiver is responsible for the behavior of his/her child while in the library.. Further, it is the responsibility of the parent or caregiver to know the hours of the library and to pick up their child before the library closes. Library staff will try to contact a parent or caregiver of an unattended child. If they cannot contact the parent or caregiver, they will call the Penn ...

Our scientists perform extensive and careful designing of the desired sequence for codon optimization, randomization, and mutation, insertion of reporter gene sequences or tags to facilitate subsequent detection /purification of the desired ligand, cDNA or the antibody. For cDNA phage display libraries, Rx Biosciences uses a novel protocol, which avoids restriction enzyme mediated cDNA truncation, as commonly used by other vendors for cDNA cloning. Hence our protocol enhances the chance of display of full length proteins at the surface of the phages.

(Re)Claiming Space: Two Subject Libraries at the Heart of the Academic Enterprise. The development of digital technology has led to predictions that the library as a physical space will cease to exist. However, the physical world of libraries has not been replaced by a digital one, rather they are developing in parallel. Architect Geoffrey Freeman acknowledges that Whereas the Internet has tended to isolate people, the library, as a physical place, has done just the opposite. Library scholar Michael Gorman notes that among other things, libraries are valued for being a focal point of a community, the heart of the university, the collective memory of a research institution, a place in which all are welcome and a source of power through knowledge.. University art and architecture libraries are no different and ...

Genetic libraries are collections of genes present in some recombinant DNA form so they can be propagated. When people refer to screening a library they usually have some phenotype that they are able to select or screen for and evaluate a large number of library clones to look for a gene that alters the phenotype. People interested in eukaryotic biology usually make cDNA libraries that are derived from pools of mRNA isolated from an organism of interest. This allows them to isolate DNA fragments that encode proteins or RNA that are produced form the spliced form of the RNAs found in the cells. It has been a long time since I have worked with cDNA libraries, so I wont go into that here (perhaps someone in another group can add a section?). For example, suppose we have a strain of bacteria that cant grow on lactose (like Salmonella) and we are interested in finding genes that are needed for lactose metabolism. First, we prepare a plasmid that has been digested with two different restriction ...

library and reexport it from this library.. This library attempts to define a set of libraries as standard, meaning they are recommended for use, and should be encouraged as dependencies for other libraries. It does this by depending on these libraries itself, and reexporting their types and functions for easy use.. Beyond the ecosystem effects we hope to achieve, this will hopefully make the user story much easier. For a new user or team trying to get started, there is an easy library to depend upon for a large percentage of common functionality.. See the dependencies of this package to see the list of packages considered standard. The primary interfaces of each of these packages is exposed from this library via a ...

Economy Package for BAC Clone isolation:. In projects where the investigator is looking for only one or few positive clones from the library, and does not need the remaining library in plates-Rx Biosciences offers the economy package to its customers saving significant amount of cost and time. In the economy package, the library construction is performed either by random shearing or restriction enzyme methods in steps and harvested as pools of 100 to 1000 primary clones. He pools are screened for the presence of desired positive clone(s). In case the desired clone is not present in the pools, additional pools are made and screened until the desired cloned is obtained. The pool containing the specific clone is spread on large plates and individual clones, grown as glycerol stock and further screened by quickly making pools and super pools or by arraying on the nylon membrane. In this manner, the researcher gets the desired clone in fraction of the cost of the project.. ...

Background Crocodilians (Order Crocodylia) are an ancient vertebrate group of tremendous ecological, social, and evolutionary importance. They are the only extant reptilian members of Archosauria, a monophyletic group that also includes birds, dinosaurs, and pterosaurs. Consequently, crocodilian genomes represent a gateway through which the molecular evolution of avian lineages can be explored. To facilitate comparative genomics within Crocodylia and between crocodilians and other archosaurs, we have constructed a bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) library for the Australian saltwater crocodile, Crocodylus porosus. This is the first BAC library for a crocodile and only the second BAC resource for a crocodilian. Results The C. porosus BAC library consists of 101,760 individually archived clones stored in 384-well microtiter plates. Not I digestion of random clones indicates an average insert size of 102 kb. Based on a genome size estimate of 2778 Mb, the library affords 3.7 fold (3.7×) coverage of

The library only contains the differently expressing cDNAs between RCC and normal kidney. Poly (A)+ RNA were isolated from cell lines of RCC and normal kidney respectively. Moreover, single-strand cDNAs and double-strand cDNAs were synthesized in turn. After enzyme restriction, cDNAs between 400600 bp were obtained. RCC cDNAs then were divided into two groups and ligated to the specific adaptor 1 and adaptor 2 respectively . After RCC cDNAs hybridized with normal kidney cDNA twice and underwent two times of nested PCR, then with arms of T/A plasmid vectors to set up the ...

The construction and analysis of metagenomic (microbial community) libraries has provided knowledge of the genetics and biochemistry of noncultivable inhabitants of soil and marine communities (4, 9, 27). We have followed the same technological approach to begin to investigate the metabolic structure of the bowel community and to detect, by a functional screen, enzymes encoded by the genomes of the gut microbiota of mice. Phylogeny of bacterial communities can also be investigated by screening metagenomic libraries for 16S rRNA genes. We did not pursue this option because a catalogue of the murine gut microbiota derived from PCR-amplified 16S rRNA genes has been provided by Salzman et al. (30) and because Béjà et al. (4) have reported that the qualitative phylogenetic representation obtained with a BAC library was in general agreement with previous reports about the recovery of PCR-amplified rRNA genes from a marine community.. As in the case of soil, the digesta contains compounds that ...

To explore CR1 distribution in C. porosus, macroarrays were screened with CR1b-derived overgos or a combination of CR1a and CR1b overgos. Comparison of the CR1b- and CR1a/b-probed macroarrays revealed that the CR1a and CR1b subfamilies are not distinguishable in our assay, i.e., virtually no differences in hybridization pattern and intensity were observed when comparing the CR1b and CR1a/CR1b filters (data not shown). It was clear, however, that elements similar to CR1a and b are fairly abundant in C. porosus. Examination of one-quarter of the CR1a/b-probed macroarray (Figure 3A) indicates that 8.9% of clones show hybridization to the CR1a/b overgos while CR1b overgo hybridization to a filter stamped with the contents of a single 384-well plate from the BAC library suggests that 12.8% of clones (49 of 384) are positive for the CR1b overgo (Figure 4). Densitometric analysis of the macroarray reveals that there is a six-fold variation in positive clone hybridization intensity. If the lightest, but ...

OPPORTUNITY TO PROPOSE ORGANISMS FOR BAC LIBRARY CONSTRUCTION Release Date: December 19, 2001 NOTICE: NOT-HG-02-004 National Human Genome Research Institute Annual Submission Dates: February 10, June 10 and October 10 Over the past several years, the bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) has emerged as the vector system of choice for the construction of the large- insert chromosomal DNA libraries that are needed in genomic studies. Because BAC clones are relatively large and appear to faithfully represent an organisms genome, the BAC system will also be the vehicle of choice for the isolation of targeted regions of genomic DNA from additional organisms being used in specific biological studies, a variety of mouse strains, and even from individual humans. With the increasing interest in genomic approaches to biological research, the demand for new BAC libraries is expected to increase rapidly in the next several years. To meet the need to increase the number of available BAC libraries, NHGRI, ...

Cell panning of phage-displayed antibody library is a powerful tool for the development of therapeutic and imaging agents since disease-related cell surface proteins in native complex conformation can be directly targeted. Here, we employed a strategy taking advantage of an integrated vector system which allows rapid conversion of scFv-displaying phage into scFv-Fc format for efficient cell-based scFv library selection on a tetraspanin protein, CD9. A mouse scFv library constructed by using a phagemid vector, pDR-D1 was subjected to cell panning against stable CD9 transfectant, and the scFv repertoire from the enriched phage pool was directly transferred to a mammalian cassette vector, pDR-OriP-Fc1. The resulting constructs enabled transient expression of enough amounts of scFv-Fcs in HEK293E cells, and flow cytometric screening of binders for CD9 transfectant could be performed simply by using the culture supernatants. All three clones selected from the screening showed correct CD9-specificity. They

The Suppression Subtractive Hybridization (SSH) method has previously been used to generate tissue-specific cDNA libraries and to compare gene expression in different types of tissues. We propose that the SSH method can be modified to serve as a mutation detection method. This modified SSH method would scan the entire genome for sequence disruptions in DNA. Two plasmids have been chosen to serve as a model system. One plasmid is a PGL-2 plasmid, and the second plasmid is a PGL-2 plasmid that contains a 935 base pair (bp) segment of the G6PDH gene. The goal of this project is to detect the 935 bp insert in the PGL-2 plasmid. The purpose of the plasmid model system is to demonstrate that the modified SSH method is feasible, and successful as a mutation detection method.

TY - JOUR. T1 - Suppression subtractive hybridization. AU - Ghorbel, Mohamed T. AU - Murphy, David. PY - 2011. Y1 - 2011. N2 - Comparing two RNA populations that differ from the effects of a single independent variable, such as a drug treatment or a specific genetic defect, can establish differences in the abundance of specific transcripts that vary in a population dependent manner. There are different methods for identifying differentially expressed genes. These methods include microarray, Serial Analysis of Gene Expression (SAGE), and quantitative Reverse-Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction (qRT-PCR). Herein, the protocol describes an easy and cost-effective alternative that does not require prior knowledge of the transcriptomes under examination. It is specifically relevant when low levels of RNA starting material are available.

If youre visiting ilovelibraries.org, chances are you already know that libraries are a treasure. As a library patron, you know that the library is the heart and soul of the community. But not everyone in your community gets it. Libraries need people to get involved: to spread the word about the value of the library to neighbors, friends and decision-makers. The first step is to visit your library and talk to your librarian. There are more formal opportunities, too, such as joining a Friends of the Library group or becoming a library trustee. Throughout the history of the U.S., it has been through the coordination, hard work, and determination of library-loving people that new libraries have been built, budgets have been restored and increased, and a larger understanding has been generated for the powerful role libraries play in communities, in schools and on campuses. Read on to learn how your can get involved to help your local library thrive. ...

Thus far, the partial RFG8 cDNA sequence consists of 3673 bp and the corresponding amino acid sequence of 1081 amino acids (Fig. 3) ⇓ . Database searches using both cDNA and protein sequences revealed the following significant similarities: (a) the human bacterial artificial chromosome clone RG300C03 (human bacterial artificial chromosome library CITB-HS-A) mapped to chromosome 7q31.2 was detected showing several interrupted sequence similarities between 51 and 78%. We conclude that a RFG8-related gene on chromosome 7 may exist; (b) several EST clone sequences from mice, rats, and humans have been identified showing very high similarities to the RFG8 sequence (up to 99%), indicating that the same or a highly related gene is expressed in these species. Most of the human EST sequences cover 3′ RFG8 sequence regions, and some of them belong to clones that are mapped to chromosome 18 (e.g., cDNA clones NHTBCae15h12 and IMAGE:36907). Therefore, it cannot be excluded that they have sequences ...

This unit presents protocols for construction of next‐generation sequencing (NGS) directional RNA sequencing libraries for the Illumina HiSeq and MiSeq from a wide variety of input RNA sources

Of the three major approaches to RNA quantification, microarrays and RT-PCR suffer from the same ailment: they are hybridization-based techniques, which means that only an analysis of known microRNAs is possible. A powerful alternative, which allows us to look at the whole range of known and unknown RNA species, is of course next generation sequencing (RNA-seq). RNA sequencing of small RNAs is not without its own problems, though, and one of the major issues is the tendency for ligation bias, which leads to an inaccurate microRNA representation in the sequencing library and thus an inaccurate quantification - which can be off the target by as much as 1000-fold!. To the rescue comes a study by Rui Yi and colleagues, published this week in Genome Biology. Yi and colleagues show that, when using a standard library preparation protocol, RNA-seqs ability to quantify individual miRNA species is severely compromised (confirming the findings of a previous study by Thomas Tuschl and colleagues). They ...

High-quality RNA was used for cDNA synthesis and library construction. cDNA was synthesized using the Clontech SMARTer PCR cDNA Synthesis Kit (Clontech Laboratories, Mountainview, CA, USA). Cycle optimization was performed to determine the optimal number of cycles for large-scale PCR. After performing large-scale PCR, 3 cDNA size fractions (1-2 kb, 2-3 kb, and 3-6 kb) were prepared using the BluePippin size selection system for NGS (Sage Science, Beverly, MA, USA). Each sample was used as input for library preparation. The SMRTbell library was constructed by using the SMRTbell™ Template Prep Kit 1.0 (PN 100-259-100; Pacific Biosciences, Menlo Park, CA, USA). After a sequencing primer is annealed to the SMRTbell template, DNA polymerase is bound to the complex (DNA/Polymerase Binding Kit P6; Pacific Biosciences). Following the polymerase-binding reaction, the MagBead Kit is used to bind the library complex with MagBeads prior to sequencing. MagBead-bound complexes provide for more reads per ...

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The proposed research will enable mammalian cells to be used in mutation/selection experiments to identify genes involved in cellular processes. The objective of the proposal is to develop procedures for preparing siRNA libraries using genomic DNA and cDNA samples as the source material for siRNA templates. Libraries of siRNA vectors could comprise 1,000,000,000 to 1,000,000,000,000 unique siRNA expression vectors, making it possible to cover entire mammalian genomes with overlapping siRNAs. Mammalian cell populations transfected or transduced with siRNA vector libraries will be placed under selection to create cell populations expressing a desirable phenotype. The siRNA vector(s) integrated in the genomes of the selected cells will be amplified, cloned, and sequenced to reveal the siRNA template sequence. The siRNA sequences will be used to identify the genes whose down-regulation create the phenotype that was selected. The siRNA vector libraries should ...

A normalised cDNA library was constructed from Bermudagrass to attain notion into the transcriptome of Cynodondactylon L. An entire of 15 588 high-top quality expressed sequence tags (ESTs) from the cDNA library have been subjected to The Institute for Genomic Evaluation Gene Indices clustering devices to offer a unigene set.. An entire of 9414 unigenes have been obtained from the high-quality ESTs and solely 39.6% of the high-quality ESTs have been redundant, indicating that the normalisation course of was environment friendly. A giant-scale comparative genomic analysis of the unigenes was carried out using publicly obtainable devices, harking back to BLAST, InterProScan and Gene Ontology. The unigenes have been moreover subjected to a search for EST-derived straightforward sequence repeats (EST-SSRs) and conserved-intron scanning primers (CISPs), which might be useful as DNA markers.. Although the candidate EST-SSRs and CISPs found throughout the present study needs to be empirically examined, ...

To extend the search for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) associated antigens with immunogenicity for clinical applications. we constructed a cDNA expression library using resected human HCC tissue sample and screened it by serological analysis of recombinant cDNA expression library (SEREX) with autologous and allogeneic sera. A total of 24 distinct antigens were isolated and kinectin was the antigen most frequently identified. We found that kinectin was alternatively spliced at four sites and obtained all eight theoretical forms of variant, six by SEREX and two by RT-PCR, from the different splicing combinations of the last three sites. In addition, the splicing patterns of four sites were analyzed. Variant containing D2 was overexpressed in cancerous tissues and this alteration may be tumor associated. The four splicing sites. the variants generated by alternative splicing, and the humoral immune response in HCC patients, may help to analyze the role of kinectin in human HCC cell biology. ...

The first place to look for data types or functions that do what you want is the Standard Prelude, then the Language and library specification (both parts of the Haskell standards documentation), then in whatever extra libraries are provided by the Haskell implementation you are using, then on the page you are looking at. If it is not here, then it may be in the archives of the Haskell Weekly News. Search the standard libraries collection (by name or type signature) using Hoogle. There is a mailing list for discussing issues related to libraries. A large collection of standard hierarchical libraries are currently distributed with GHC (from version 5.04), Hugs (from Nov 2003), and nhc98 (from 1.16). Cabal, The Common Architecture for Building Applications and Libraries, is an framework for packaging, building, and installing any tool developed in the Haskell language. See also the Hackage database. Some of the libraries and tools linked to from the library and tools pages are proof-of-concepts ...

This article includes supplemental data. Please visit http://www.fasebj.org to obtain this information.Multiple recent publications on RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) have demonstrated the power of next-generation sequencing technologies in whole-transcriptome analysis. Vendor-specific protocols used for RNA library construction often require at least 100 ng total RNA. However, under certain conditions, much less RNA is available for library construction. In these cases, effective transcriptome profiling requires amplification of subnanogram amounts of RNA. Several commercial RNA amplification kits are available for amplification prior to library construction for next-generation sequencing, but these kits have not been comprehensively field evaluated for accuracy and performance of RNA-seq for picogram amounts of RNA. To address this, 4 types of amplification kits were tested with 3 different concentrations, from 5 ng to 50 pg, of a commercially available RNA. Kits were tested at multiple sites to ...

Experimental strategy of the normalized process. The main objective of this study was to construct a normalized library with approximately equal representation of all the mRNA sequences in order to increase the chances of identifying rare genes in embryoid tissues. The normalized cDNA library denoted EON was constructed based on the reassociation kinetics reaction. Effectiveness of the normalization process was confirmed through direct sequencing and dot blot analysis. Direct sequencing of 1,007 randomly picked ESTs demonstrated changes in the redundancy level of certain genes in EON library compared to the standard EO library. Frequency of genes, such as ribosomal protein, metallothionein-like protein, lipid transfer protein homolog and cys-peroxiredoxin, which were reported to be highly abundant in the standard EO library were reduced in the EON library. The frequency of low abundance genes like pectinesterase, early nodulin, PBS lyase HEAT-like repeat-containing protein and crumpled leaf were ...

In this study we report on an MGWA analysis to predict bacterial genes that influence the association with the fruit fly D. melanogaster, the creation of a mapped and arrayed transposon insertion library to identity gene-specific insertions in A. fabarum DsW_054, and the use of the mutant library to test the MGWA-predictions. The library includes 6,418 mutants that were mapped to 1,625 genes and 859 intergenic insertions. A 100% validation rate suggested a high accuracy rate of the mapping. Also, near-saturating coverage of non-essential genes allowed us to make inferences about which genes are essential for A. fabarum DsW_054 growth on mMRS medium. Finally, the host-association tests confirmed the prediction that bacterial LPS biosynthesis genes influence bacterial load in the fruit fly, and identified Lipid A biosynthesis genes as key players for these effects. Follow-up experiments that utilize the rich resources available for interrogating host-microbe interactions in Drosophila are ...

Libraries of 16S rRNA genes provide insight into the membership of microbial communities. Statistical methods help to determine whether differences in library composition are artifacts of sampling or are due to underlying differences in the communities from which they are derived. To contribute to a growing statistical framework for comparing 16S rRNA libraries, we present a computer program, ∫-LIBSHUFF, which calculates the integral form of the Cramér-von Mises statistic. This implementation builds upon the LIBSHUFF program, which uses an approximation of the statistic and makes a number of modifications that improve precision and accuracy. Once ∫-LIBSHUFF calculates the P values, when pairwise comparisons are tested at the 0.05 level, the probability of falsely identifying a significant P value is 0.098 for a study with two libraries, 0.265 for three libraries, and 0.460 for four libraries. The potential negative effects of making the multiple pairwise comparisons necessitate correcting ...

Five novel cDNA clones were isolated and identified from a differentiated glial subtractive library. They were shown to be specific to the nervous system by Northern blotting analysis. In situ hybridisation (ISH) studies were carried out on cultured glial cells to determine if any of the clones were expressed by specific glial cell types. Oligodendrocytes were identified by the monoclonal antibody O4 and astrocytes were identified with an anti-GFAP monoclonal antibody. Clone OL0755, one of the novel brain specific clones identified, was chosen for further investigation. Two cDNA clones, believed to be full length, were obtained by hybridisation screening of a rat cDNA library. Clone OL0755-A is 2.7 kb and encodes a protein of approximately 60 kD. Clone OL0755-B is 2 kb in size and encodes a protein of approximately 50 kD. Sequence analysis showed these clones to be two alternatively spliced forms of a common gene. An antibody (Ab755) raised against a 23 amino acid N-terminus peptide common to ...
