Targeted Exome and Gene Panel Analysis from Low Input and FFPE DNA using Hybridization Capture for Cancer Genome Studies

2 Aug 2016

Hybridization-based target enrichment techniques coupled with Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) provide a useful and cost-efficient means to study disease specific target regions including whole exomes and gene panels. Clinical samples may be limited in input and of compromised quality due to formalin fixation, however most current NGS library preparation methods require 50-100 ng high quality DNA for such studies. This application note presents an efficient method, which enables high quality target enrichment and variant calling from inputs as low as 1-25 ng.

SureSelect Focused Exome

Agilent Technologies

The SureSelect Focused Exome is a highly targeted design that enables analysis of only disease-associated targets, enabling superior coverage of disease-associated regions even on benchtop sequencers. This design provides 20 or more reads for 95% of targets at 1.5Gb (100x) of sequencing and 98% of targets with 3Gb (200x) of sequencing.

SureSelect DNA Panels

Agilent Technologies

Agilent SureSelect DNA panels are predefined designs which focus on targeted gene sets for specific applications. Agilent offers two human panels, the SureSelect Human Kinome panel and SureSelect X-Chromosome panel. The SureSelect Human DNA Kinome panel targets a comprehensive set of kinases and kinase related genes for enrichment, targeting over 500 kinases and 612 genes. The SureSelect X-Chromosome panel targets all of the genes on the X chromosome. • SureSelect Kinome kits are available for targeting either DNA (genomic regions) or RNA (transcripts) • Efficient workflows for post-capture (XT) and pre-capture (XT2) pooling – (XT2 - pool up to 16 samples per enrichment)
