Project description:In this study, we present a comprehensive evaluation of four RNA-Seq library preparation methods. We used three standard input protocols, the Illumina TruSeq Stranded Total RNA and TruSeq Stranded mRNA kits, and a modified NuGEN Ovation v2 kit; and an ultra-low-input RNA protocol, the TaKaRa SMARTer Ultra Low RNA Kit v3. Our evaluation of these kits included quality control measures such as overall reproducibility, 5’ and 3’ end-bias, and the identification of DEGs, lncRNAs, and alternatively spliced transcripts. Overall, we found that the two Illumina kits were most similar in terms of recovering DEGs, and the Illumina, modified NuGEN, and TaKaRa kits allowed identification of a similar set of DEGs. However, we also discovered that the Illumina, NuGEN and TaKaRa kits each enriched for different sets of genes.

Amplicon-based targeted re-sequencing analysis of target genes in human DNA samples using the Illumina TruSeq Custom Amplicon technology

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.
