Project description:We have developed two methods for efficiently consructing RNA-seq libraries using transposition. Each method constructs high quality RNA-seq libraries when compared to standard approaches. One of the methods (Directional Tn-RNA-seq) maintains strand-of-origin information and exhibits strand specificity comparable to current approaches. RNA-seq libraries were constructed from ECC-1, a human cell line, and Universal Human Reference RNA using transposon-based and standard RNA-seq library construciton methods.

Project description:Deep sequencing of strand-specific cDNA libraries is now a ubiquitous tool for identifying and quantifying RNAs in diverse sample types. The accuracy of conclusions drawn from these analyses depends on precise and quantitative conversion of the RNA sample into a DNA library suitable for sequencing. Here, we describe an optimized method of preparing strand-specific RNA deep sequencing libraries from small RNAs, variably sized RNA fragments obtained from ribonucleoprotein particle footprinting experiments or fragmentation of long RNAs. Our approach works across a wide range of input amounts (400 pg to 200 ng), is easy to follow and produces a library in 2–3 days at relatively low reagent cost, all while giving the user complete control over every step. Because all enzymatic reactions were optimized and driven to apparent completion, sequence diversity and species abundance in the input sample are well preserved.
Project description:This series represents the Cancer Genome Anatomy Project SAGE library collection. Libraries contained herein were either produced through CGAP funding, or donated to CGAP. The Cancer Genome Anatomy Project (CGAP: http://cgap.nci.nih.gov) is an interdisciplinary program established and administered by the National Cancer Institute (NCI: http://www.nci.nih.gov) to generate the information and technological tools needed to decipher the molecular anatomy of the cancer cell. SAGE libraries are named according to the following convention: * SAGE_Organ_histology_code_unique identifier, e.g., SAGE_Colon_adenocarcinoma_CL_Caco2 * Codes: B = bulk; CL = cell line; CS = short-term cell culture; MD = micro-dissected; AP = antibody purified. These libraries were downloaded from the CGAP Web site on March 17, 2009 This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below.
Project description:We developed a new method of preparing libraries for strand-specific RNA sequencing (ssRNA-Seq). It employs Direct Ligation of Adaptors to First-strand cDNA (DLAF). We compared ssRNA-Seq libraries prepared using either the DLAF and dUTP methods from mouse embryonic stem cells (mES) and libraries were sequenced from one end or both ends. We also conducted a comparison of ssRNA-Seq libraries prepared using DLAF and ScriptSeq v2 kit (Epicenter) from mouse embryonic cortex (mECx).

Because all enzymatic reactions were optimized and driven to apparent completion, sequence diversity and species abundance in the input sample are well preserved. Deep sequencing libraries from either a randomized RNA oligo or an equimolar miRNA mix were analyzed for evenness of capture.
Project description:We report the development of a novel strand-specific ChIP-seq strategy and application of this strategy in studying genome instability events We examined vulnerable genomic sites by applying strand-specific ChIP-seq of Rad52 to S. pombe haploid mutants showing elevated level of genome instability.

RNA was isolated using either Trizol or Qiagen Rneasy kit. rRNA is depleted using Eukaryote Ribominus v2 kit and libraries were prepared using one of the methods.
