High Target Coverage
xGen Lockdown Probes provide approximately 5000-fold enrichment, high coverage over targeted regions (Figure 1), and minimal GC bias.
FIGURE 1. XGEN LOCKDOWN PROBES YIELD HIGH COVERAGE.Ligation-based sequencing libraries were amplified by PCR using HiFi DNA polymerase (Kapa Biosystems). A set of 1000 xGen Lockdown Probes spanning the targeted region was used for in-solution hybrid selection with 2 µg of library input. Hybridization was performed for 24 hr and enriched targets were sequenced on a HiSeq 2000 System (Illumina) using 49 x 49 paired-end reads. The Lockdown Probes provided greater coverage than array/RNA baits.
Improve Coverage of Array-Synthesized Baits
xGen Lockdown Probes can be added to array-derived RNA baits to enhance the coverage of GC-rich targets, such as first exons (Figure 2).
