Microarray-based multicycle-enrichment of genomic subsets for targeted next-generation sequencing

Microarray-based multicycle-enrichment of genomic subsets for targeted next-generation sequencing.

The lack of efficient high-throughput methods for enrichment of specific sequences from genomic DNA represents a key bottleneck in exploiting the enormous potential of next-generation sequencers. Such methods would allow for a systematic and targeted analysis of relevant genomic regions. Recent studies reported sequence enrichment using a hybridization step to specific DNA capture probes as a p...

Targeted enrichment of genomic DNA regions for next-generation sequencing

In this review, we discuss the latest targeted enrichment methods and aspects of their utilization along with second-generation sequencing for complex genome analysis. In doing so, we provide an overview of issues involved in detecting genetic variation, for which targeted enrichment has become a powerful tool. We explain how targeted enrichment for next-generation sequencing has made great pro...

I-37: Establishing High Resolution Genomic Profiles of Single Cells Using Microarray and Next-Generation Sequencing Technologies

The nature and pace of genome mutation is largely unknown. Standard methods to investigate DNA-mutation rely on arraying or sequencing DNA from a population of cells, hence the genetic composition of individual cells is lost and de novo mutation in cell(s) is concealed within the bulk signal. We developed methods based on (SNP-) arraying and next-generation sequencing of single-cell whole-genom...

Practice guidelines for Targeted Next Generation Sequencing

DNA sequencing is the most commonly used approach for mutation scanning and is widely regarded as the gold standard. Agreed practice guidelines for both the sequencing process and data analysis are important to achieve a high quality approach, with common quality standards across different laboratories. These guidelines do not constitute an experimental protocol or troubleshooting guide, rather...
