Project description:Amplicon-based targeted re-sequencing analysis was performed in the patient-derived gliobastoma cell culture samples. For this purpose, genomic DNA (gDNA) was isolated and DNA libraries were prepared using the TruSeq Custom Amplicon Low Input (Illumina, Inc.) technology. By this, a pool of 375 amplicons was generated for each single sample in order to enrich for the target genes ATRX1, EGFR, IDH1, NF1, PDGFRA, PIK3CG, PIK3R1, PTEN, RB1 and TP53. Sequencing was performed on the Illumina MiSeq® next generation sequencing system (Illumina Inc.) and its 2 x 250 bp paired-end v2 read chemistry. The resulting reads were quality controlled and mapped against the human reference genome (hg19). For all samples, sequence variations of the amplified regions of interest in comparison to the human reference sequence were identified and filtered based on reliability.
