Project description:We evaluated the effect of the small RNA library preparation method on 5' tRNA-halves and miRNA abundance in libraries prepared from serum RNA using three commercially available small RNA library preparation kits (TruSeq small RNA library preparation kit v2 (Illumina), TailorMix miRNA sample preparation kit v2 (Seqmatic) and the NEBNext Multiplex Small RNA library prep kit (New England Biolabs)). RNA isolated from 100 µl of serum collected from healthy mice was used as input for the preparation of a small RNA library in duplicate and libraries were single end sequenced.

Project description:Immunoglobulin library preparation for NGS
Project description:We have engineered an RT-active DNA polymerase variant called RT-KTq I614Y that produces error RT‑signatures specific for pseudouridine (Ψ) without prior chemical treatment of the RNA samples. These signatures are amplified during DNA amplicon library preparation and are detected by NGS. This method was applied to distinguish U from Ψ in RNA oligonucleotides (modified or unmodified) used in the previous polymerase screening and oligonucleotides which are designed from the human 18S rRNA at the position around 1445. Finally, RT-KTq I614Y was used to detect Ψ55 in tRNAGly(GCC) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae wildtype compared to data from tRNAGly(GCC) from S. cerevisiae pus4Δ.

Project description:Effects of library preparation on metagenomic profiles
Project description:We optimzed ATAC-seq library preparation for use with Drosophila melanogaster. The protocol addresses factors specific to fruit flies, such as the insect exoskeleton and smaller genome size. The optimized protocol provides guidelines for sample input, nuclei isolation, and enzymatic reaction times. The data included here were generated using our optimized library preparation workflow.
Project description:Total RNAs from exosomes was used for miRNA library preparation and sequencing.The preparation and sequencing of exosome miRNA were performed by Ribobio (Guangzhou, China). First, total RNA samples were fractionated by using 15% Tris-borate-EDTA (TBE) polyacrylamide gel (Invitrogen), then small RNAs ranging from 18 to 30 nucleotides were used for library preparation. Amplification of these small RNAs was then accomplished by PCR. Next, the Illumina HiSeq 2500 platform was used to sequence these RNAs.
Project description:In the research field of extracellular vesicles (EVs), the use of EV-depleted fetal bovine serum (FBS) for in vitro studies is highly recommended to eliminate the confounding effects of media derived EVs. EV-depleted FBS may either be prepared by ultracentrifugation or bought commercially, nevertheless these depletion methods do not guarantee an RNA-free preparation. In this study we have addressed the RNA contamination issue in FBS, ultracentrifuged EV-depleted FBS, commercially available EV-depleted FBS, and also from our recently developed filtration based EV depleted FBS. Commercially available serum-free, xeno-free defined media were also screened for RNA contamination.
