How to cluster and sequence an ngs library (james hadfield160416)James Hadfield
A presentation for people intersted in understanding how Illumina adapter ligation, clustering ands SBS sequencing work. Follow core-genomics http://core-genomics.blogspot.co.uk/
Thousands of different long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) exist in mammalian cells. lncRNAs do not encode proteins but can be very important for cell function. Studying their functions can be difficult because of their diverse modes of action. One method to discern cellular function is by selective knockdown of a specific lncRNA species. However, achieving consistent knockdown has proven to be more challenging for lncRNAs than for mRNAs or miRNAs. In this presentation, we discuss some of the issues encountered with lncRNA research. We cover antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) and small interfering RNA (siRNA) methods for lncRNA knockdown. And, we show how cellular localization of a specific lncRNA target informs the choice of knockdown method.

The CRISPR-Cas9 system demonstrates unparalleled genome editing efficiency in a broad range of species and cell types, but it suffers from concerns related to target specificity. Modified guide RNAs and mutant Cas9 proteins have been developed to reduce off-target editing but, in many cases, the alterations also significantly reduce on-target editing performance. In this presentation, Dr Chris Vakulskas discusses a novel, high-fidelity Cas9 protein that reduces off-target gene editing, while maintaining high on-target activity. Dr Vakulskas presents data from the development of the new Alt-R® S.p. HiFi Cas9 Nuclease 3NLS and describes its usefulness in mitigating unwanted off-target gene editing, without the issues associated with transfection of plasmid DNA.
Introduction to real-Time Quantitative PCR (qPCR) - Download the slidesQIAGEN
This slidedeck introduces the concepts of real-time PCR and how to conduct a real-time PCR assay. The topics that are covered include an overview of real-time PCR chemistries, protocols, quantification methods, real-time PCR applications and factors for success.
Real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) is a preferred platform for high throughput gene expression profiling, where large numbers of samples are characterized for hundreds of expression markers. Technically, the qPCR measurements are performed in the same way as when classical qPCR is used to analyze only a few targets per sample, but the higher throughput introduces additional sources of potential confounding variation that must be controlled for. In this presentation, Dr Kubista describes how high throughput qPCR profiling studies are designed. He covers assay optimization and validation, sample quality testing, and how to merge multi-plate measurements into a common analysis. Dr Kubista also discusses how to cost-effectively measure and compensate for background due to genomic DNA.
Struggling with low editing efficiency or delivery problems in primary or difficult-to-transfect cells? In this presentation, learn about the advantages of using a Cas9:crRNA:tracrRNA ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex for genome editing. We show the benefits of using RNP complexes, including ease of use, limiting off-target effects, and stability. We also present data showing how genome editing efficiency rates are improved by our Cas9 electroporation enhancer. Furthermore, we provide advice on how to optimize transfection using the Alt-R™ CRISPR-Cas9 System in combination with different electroporation methodologies.
qPCR assays using intercalating dyes, such as SYBR® Green dye, are an economical and effective tool for measuring gene expression. To interpret intercalating dye assays, users need to know how to analyze melt curves, and understand the benefits and limitations of melt curve analysis. In this presentation, Nick Downey, PhD, covers melt curve basics and shares examples of multiple peaks due to suboptimal sample prep, primer dimers, and asymmetric GC content of amplicons. He demonstrates troubleshooting strategies. Experienced and novice users will benefit from an overview of uMeltSM software, developed by the Wittwer lab at the University of Utah, that can predict the melt profile of your assay before you run your experiment.
Cancer therapies that target specific pathways can be more effective than established, nonspecific chemotherapy and radiation treatments, and may prevent side effects on healthy tissues. Such targeted therapies can only be applied after underlying gene mutations have been identified. However, detecting low frequency variants from clinically relevant samples poses significant challenges. Specimens are routinely formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded (FFPE) for histology, which can decrease the efficiency of NGS library preparation. In this presentation, we discuss approaches for extraction of DNA from FFPE samples, and recommend quality control assays to guide parameter selection for library construction and sequencing depth.

Achieve Complete Coverage of the SARS-CoV-2 GenomeCamille Cappello
Utilize multiple overlapping amplicons in a single tube, using a rapid, 2-hour workflow to prepare ready-to-sequence libraries. The PCR1+PCR2 workflow generates robust libraries even from low input quantities of DNA that may be subsequently quantified and normalized with conventional methods such as Qubit® or Agilent Bioanalyzer, or optionally using the included Swift Normalase reagents.

Enabling RNA-Seq With Limited RNA Using Whole Transcriptome AmplificationQIAGEN
RNA-Seq was developed to perform transcriptome profiling and provides a highly precise measurement of expression levels of transcripts and their isoforms. Normally, RNA-Seq analysis requires at least 500 ng –1 μg of total RNA. When working with small biopsies, single cells (such as circulating tumor cells), or other limited material, whole transcriptome amplification (WTA) is normally required. Various WTA methods overcome limited RNA availability and enable transcriptome analysis from limited material or even single cells. In standard PCR-based WTA procedures, however, bias from uneven coverage of cDNA regions with high GC or AT content or amplification errors can lead to the loss of transcripts and wrong variant calling. Here, we compare a standard RNA-Seq library preparation method and the REPLI-g RNA library protocol. The REPLI-g procedure is a PCR-free protocol to efficiently generate RNA-Seq libraries from small amounts of RNA or a single cell in 6.5–7 hours. The REPLI-g protocol uses whole transcriptome amplification based on multiple displacement amplification (MDA), combined with an efficient library adaptor ligation procedure, to prepare RNA-Seq libraries from small RNA amounts. The procedure demonstrates high fidelity, minimal bias and retention of sample‘s transcriptional profile. Compared to standard RNA-Seq library prep, the REPLI-g protocol demonstrates similar reproducibility and sensitivity in transcript detection.
