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).

About IDT
Integrated DNA Technologies (IDT) is a leader in manufacturing and developing products for the research and diagnostics life science market. IDT serves the areas of academic research, biotechnology, and pharmaceutical development. IDT was founded by Dr Joseph Walder in 1987. Since then, its development has been guided by an uncompromising approach to quality, a belief in the value of good service, and a determination to minimize consumer costs.
Serving over 80,000 life sciences researchers, IDT is widely recognized as the industry leader in custom oligonucleotides due to its capabilities in:
Analytical Sophistication—IDT pioneered the use of high throughput quality control (QC) methods and is the only oligonucleotide manufacturer to offer purity guarantees and 100% QC. Every oligonucleotide is analyzed by mass spectrometry and purified oligonucleotides receive further analysis by CE and HPLC.
Design Engineering—IDT maintains an engineering division dedicated to advancing synthesis, processing technology, and automation. An in-house machine shop provides rapid prototyping and custom part design/control.
Customer Support—IDT received over 100,000 calls last year with an average wait time of only 8 seconds.
Reagent and Input Control—IDT receives all solvents in large bulk containers, runs QC on all incoming materials, and performs bulk reagent formulation and functional QC on all reagents.
IDT has over 700 employees serving our worldwide customer base from headquarters in Coralville, Iowa, and facilities in San Diego, California; Leuven, Belgium; and Singapore.
