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.
Comparison of Different NGS Library Construction Methods for Single-Cell Sequ...QIAGEN
Recent advances in whole genome amplification (WGA), whole transcriptome amplification (WTA) technologies and next-generation sequencing (NGS) have enabled whole genome or transcriptome sequencing at the single-cell level. Single-cell sequencing studies have yielded new insights into the heterogeneity of the genome and transcriptome in individual cells. Such heterogeneity at the single-cell level has been shown to be closely related to cellular function, differentiation, development, and diseases. A critical element of the single-cell sequencing workflow is sequencing library construction following WGA or WTA. An efficient library construction method is required to convert a high percentage of the DNA fragments to an adaptor-ligated sequencing library and to ensure high sequence complexity of the library. Furthermore, uniform representation of all genomic regions in a sequencing library is essential for retaining all important sequence information.
Here we compared 2 library construction methods following a REPLI-g MDA-mediated WGA or WTA:
• A ligation-based library construction method using a GeneRead Library Prep Kit (QIAGEN)
• A ‘tagmentation’-based method using Nextera DNA Sample Prep Kit (Illumina), which simultaneously fragments and tags DNA.
Our results demonstrated that the Nextera library construction method can be directly used with the REPLI-g-amplified DNA following MDA reaction, without the need for DNA purification. This could be beneficial if working with a high number of samples or if the complete workflow of single WGA/WTA and library construction should be automated. However, compared with the tagmentation method, the ligation-based library construction method is more flexible with regard to the input DNA amount and delivers sequencing libraries with higher complexity and less bias. This is critical for sensitive applications, such as identification of genomic variants or comprehensive profiling of transcriptomes.

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.
High data quality and accuracy are recognized characteristics of Sanger re-sequencing projects and are primary reasons that next generation sequencing projects compliment their results by capillary electrophoresis data validation. We have developed an on-line tool called Primer Designer™ to streamline the NGS-to-Sanger sequencing workflow by taking the laborious task of PCR primer design out of the hands of the researcher by providing pre-designed assays for the human exome. The primer design tool has been created to enable scientists using next generation sequencing to quickly confirm variants discovered in their work by providing the means to quickly search, order and receive suitable pre-designed PCR primers for Sanger sequencing. Using the Primer Designer™ tool to design M13-tailed and non-tailed PCR primers for Sanger sequencing we will demonstrate validation of 28-variants across 24-amplicons and 19-genes using the BDD, BDTv1.1 and BDTv3.1 sequencing chemistries on the 3500xl Genetic Analyzer capillary electrophoresis platform.
Analyzing Fusion Genes Using Next-Generation SequencingQIAGEN
Fusion genes are hybrid genes formed by the fusion of two separate genes. Translocation, interstitial deletion and chromosomal inversions are some of the genetic events that can lead to the formation of fusion genes. The occurrence of fusion genes and its implications in cancer have already been known, but the emergence of NGS technology – especially RNA sequencing – offers the potential to detect novel gene fusions. You can learn more about fusion genes and applying NGS to detect them at our upcoming webinar, presented by Raed Samara, Ph.D., QIAGEN’s Global Product Manager for NGS technologies.
In this webinar, Dr. Raed Samara will cover:
1. Fusion genes: what they are and a historical perspective
2. Fusion gene detection: the current status
3. RNA sequencing vs. digital RNA sequencing
4. How to detect and accurately quantify novel fusion genes in your sample
Identity testing by NGS as a means of risk mitigation for viral gene therapiesMerck Life Sciences
Watch the presentation of this webinar here: https://bit.ly/3RijkHC
Detailed description:
Imagine you’ve just completed a manufacturing run for your viral vector. Identity testing is performed to confirm the vector sequence. But when the results come back the data reveals unexpected sequence variants! With an appropriate risk mitigation testing strategy, this situation can be prevented.
The situation described above is not hypothetical, and happens more that you think, costing valuable time and resources.
Investigatory testing has shown that sequence variants present in starting materials (e.g. plasmids) are likely to make their way to the final product. Adequate identification of low-level variants with an appropriately sensitive method is critical in ensuring the quality of the final product. A risk-based testing strategy, in the context of identity, for viral vector manufacturing will be presented, focusing on key testing points. NGS assays for identity and variant detection will be highlighted due to their extremely sensitive nature compared to traditional approaches.
In this webinar, we'll explore:
• Regulatory requirements for identity testing
• NGS applications for identity testing as compared to traditional methods
• A case study on the impact of not establishing a proper risk-based testing strategy

Exploring the Temperate Leaf Microbiome: From Natural Forests to Controlled E...QIAGEN
The aerial surfaces of plants, the phyllosphere, harbors a diverse community of microorganisms. The increasing awareness of the potential roles of phyllosphere microbial communities calls for a greater understanding of their structure and dynamics in natural and urban ecosystems. To do so, we characterized the community structure and assembly dynamics of leaf bacterial communities in natural temperate forests of Quebec by comparing the relative influence of host species identity, site, and time on phyllosphere bacterial community structure. Second, we tested the value of characterizing a tree’s complete phyllosphere microbial community through a single sample by measuring the intra-individual, inter-individual and interspecific variation in leaf bacterial communities. Third, we quantified the relationships among phyllosphere bacterial diversity, plant species richness, plant functional diversity and identity, and plant community productivity in a biodiversity-ecosystem function experiment with trees. Finally, we compared tree leaf bacterial communities in natural and urban environments, as well as along a gradient of increasing anthropogenic pressures. The work presented here thus offers an original assessment of the dynamics at play in the tree phyllosphere.
Cancer Research & the Challenges of FFPE Samples – An IntroductionQIAGEN
A cascade of complex genetic and epigenetic changes regulate tumor formation and progression. Gene expression analyses can shed light on these changes at a molecular level and identify the key genes and associated pathways involved in cancer. Often the samples used in cancer research are FFPE samples, which pose a significant challenge in terms of nucleic acid quality. The quality of nucleic acids extracted from FFPE samples depends on a number of factors, including how the samples were handled before, during and after fixation and embedding.
Dr. Vishwadeepak Tripathi describes the variability of sample purification from FFPE samples – in particular, samples to be used in cancer research. What are the challenges and solutions, and what quality control approach can ensure credible results? This webinar will focus on sample purification and the quality control of FFPE samples and compare different automated purification procedures.
The Microbiome of Research Animals : Implications for Reproducibility, Transl...QIAGEN
The human gut microbiota (GM) has emerged as a key factor in susceptibility to, as well as a potential biomarker of, several diseases and conditions. Similarly, researchers now appreciate that the GM of laboratory animals could affect the reproducibility and translatability of many disease models, including a complete loss of phenotype. While associations between characteristics of the GM and differential disease model phenotypes are of concern, they can also be viewed as sources of discovery related to disease pathogenesis. As such, there is considerable interest in factors that inadvertently influence the composition of the GM and methods of manipulating the GM prospectively to investigate such associations and standardize or optimize disease models. The webinar will present data on variables capable of influencing the GM of laboratory rodents citing several examples and animal models, considerations related to manipulation of the GM in mice and rats, and recent data supporting the use of “dirty” mice in biomedical research.

Rapid DNA isolation from diverse plant material for use in Next Generation Se...QIAGEN
Isolation of DNA from plant material is often a tedious process which involves significant hands on time and leads to varying results due to the diverse nature of the material. Different parts of the plants as well as the plants themselves differ in both consistency of material and presence of inhibitory substances, making dependable isolation of DNA difficult.
Here, we developed a method for the efficient extraction of DNA from different plant types, including strawberry leaf, pine needle, grape leaf, and cotton and coffee seeds (workflow at right). A novel bead beating method and lysis chemistry led to more efficient sample lysis with minimal hands-on time and significantly increased DNA yield compared to conventional methods. Through the use of multiple technologies to improve removal of secondary metabolites, such as polyphenols, complex polysaccharides, alkaloids and tannins that may inhibit downstream applications, the isolated DNA was of high quality and purity.
The resulting DNA is suitable for immediate use in downstream reactions, including PCR, qPCR and Next Generation Sequencing based applications. Using this method we were further able to design a workflow that included DNA isolation, library preparation and bioinformatics analyses for the efficient detection of plant pathogens isolated from infected samples. With this, our protocol is a substantial improvement within workflows used for plant microbiome and plant pathology studies as well as in plant breeding and engineering.
Rapid extraction of high yield, high quality DNA from tissue samples - Downlo...QIAGEN
Genetic and genomic analysis from tissue samples requires the extraction of high quality DNA. Mechanical disruption methods such as bead milling provide high yield from tissue samples, but cause damage to the nucleic acids. Purely enzymatic methods such as proteinase K digestion can extract nucleic acid without damage, but require long incubation times, often proceeding overnight, and without approaching the yields achieved by mechanical disruption techniques. Thus a method is needed which can provide a rapid extraction of high yield, high quality DNA from tissue samples. See the new method.

Multiplex real-time PCR is a powerful tool for gene expression analysis, viral load monitoring, genotyping, and many other applications. The ability to amplify and detect several genomic DNA, cDNA, or RNA targets in the same reaction offers many benefits:
• Conservation of precious samples – more quantification data per sample
• Increased throughput – more targets analyzed per run on a cycler
• Reliable results – no well-to-well variability due to co-amplification of internal control
• Reduced costs – save time and reagents
The QuantiFast Multiplex PCR and RT-PCR kits are optimized for reliable amplification of many different templates despite a high variability in abundance. Thus they enable successful amplification of multiple targets on the first attempt without optimization.
This webinar explains the principles of the QIAGEN multiplex technologies and shows data demonstrating the exceptional multiplex real-time PCR performance of the QuantiFast Multiplex kits.

Simultaneous Isolation of RNA & DNA from one FFPE SampleQIAGEN
Worldwide, there are millions of tissue samples archived in tissue biobanks and biorepositories. These samples are extremely valuable for pharmacological and biomedical research and companion diagnostics, due to the linkage to patient history. The vast majority of archived tissue samples are formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded (FFPE), since formalin is the standard fixative for tissue samples.
FFPE blocks serve as an excellent source for histomorphology studies, but their use in molecular studies is challenging, due to crosslinking and fragmentation caused by fixation, processing, embedding, and storage conditions. For reliable comparison of genomic and transcriptomic data from heterogeneous samples and to spare sample material, purification of DNA and RNA from
the same sample is essential. This is particularly important when working with tumorous tissues, which contain a heterogeneous distribution of healthy and malignant cells.
