Cost-effective, high-throughput DNA sequencing libraries for multiplexed target capture.

ABSTRACT: Improvements in technology have reduced the cost of DNA sequencing to the point that the limiting factor for many experiments is the time and reagent cost of sample preparation. We present an approach in which 192 sequencing libraries can be produced in a single day of technician time at a cost of about $15 per sample. These libraries are effective not only for low-pass whole-genome sequencing, but also for simultaneously enriching them in pools of approximately 100 individually barcoded samples for a subset of the genome without substantial loss in efficiency of target capture. We illustrate the power and effectiveness of this approach on about 2000 samples from a prostate cancer study.

Cost-conscious generation of multiplexed short-read DNA libraries for whole-genome sequencing.

Project description:Massively parallel, second-generation short-read DNA sequencing has become an integral tool in biology for genomic studies. Offering highly accurate base-pair resolution at the most competitive price, the technology has become widespread. However, high-throughput generation of multiplexed DNA libraries can be costly and cumbersome. Here, we present a cost-conscious protocol for generating multiplexed short-read DNA libraries using a bead-linked transposome from Illumina. We prepare libraries in high-throughput with small reaction volumes that use 1/50th the amount of transposome compared to Illumina DNA Prep tagmentation protocols. By reducing transposome usage and optimising the protocol to circumvent magnetic bead-based clean-ups between steps, we reduce costs, labour time and DNA input requirements. Developing our own dual index primers further reduced costs and enables up to nine 96-well microplate combinations. This facilitates efficient usage of large-scale sequencing platforms, such as the Illumina NovaSeq 6000, which offers up to three terabases of sequencing per S4 flow cell. The protocol presented substantially reduces the cost per library by approximately 1/20th compared to conventional Illumina methods.

Rapid multiplexed genotyping of simple tandem repeats using capture and high-throughput sequencing.

Project description:Although simple tandem repeats (STRs) comprise ~2% of the human genome and represent an important source of polymorphism, this class of variation remains understudied. We have developed a cost-effective strategy for performing targeted enrichment of STR regions that utilizes capture probes targeting the flanking sequences of STR loci, enabling specific capture of DNA fragments containing STRs for subsequent high-throughput sequencing. Utilizing a capture design targeting 6,243 STR loci <94 bp and multiplexing eight individuals in a single Illumina HiSeq2000 sequencing lane we were able to call genotypes in at least one individual for 67.5% of the targeted STRs. We observed a strong relationship between (G+C) content and genotyping rate. STRs with moderate (G+C) content were recovered with >90% success rate, whereas only 12% of STRs with ? 80% (G+C) were genotyped in our assay. Analysis of a parent-offspring trio, complete hydatidiform mole samples, repeat analyses of the same individual, and Sanger sequencing-based validation indicated genotyping error rates between 7.6% and 12.4%. The majority of such errors were a single repeat unit at mono- or dinucleotide repeats. Altogether, our STR capture assay represents a cost-effective method that enables multiplexed genotyping of thousands of STR loci suitable for large-scale population studies.

High-throughput, cost-effective verification of structural DNA assembly.

Project description:DNA 'assembly' from 'building blocks' remains a cornerstone in synthetic biology, whether it be for gene synthesis (∼ 1 kb), pathway engineering (∼ 10 kb) or synthetic genomes (>100 kb). Despite numerous advances in the techniques used for DNA assembly, verification of the assembly is still a necessity, which becomes cost-prohibitive and a logistical challenge with increasing scale. Here we describe for the first time a comprehensive, high-throughput solution for structural DNA assembly verification by restriction digest using exhaustive in silico enzyme screening, rolling circle amplification of plasmid DNA, capillary electrophoresis and automated digest pattern recognition. This low-cost and robust methodology has been successfully used to screen over 31 000 clones of DNA constructs at <$1 per sample.

DNA Sudoku--harnessing high-throughput sequencing for multiplexed specimen analysis.

Project description:Next-generation sequencers have sufficient power to analyze simultaneously DNAs from many different specimens, a practice known as multiplexing. Such schemes rely on the ability to associate each sequence read with the specimen from which it was derived. The current practice of appending molecular barcodes prior to pooling is practical for parallel analysis of up to many dozen samples. Here, we report a strategy that permits simultaneous analysis of tens of thousands of specimens. Our approach relies on the use of combinatorial pooling strategies in which pools rather than individual specimens are assigned barcodes. Thus, the identity of each specimen is encoded within the pooling pattern rather than by its association with a particular sequence tag. Decoding the pattern allows the sequence of an original specimen to be inferred with high confidence. We verified the ability of our encoding and decoding strategies to accurately report the sequence of individual samples within a large number of mixed specimens in two ways. First, we simulated data both from a clone library and from a human population in which a sequence variant associated with cystic fibrosis was present. Second, we actually pooled, sequenced, and decoded identities within two sets of 40,000 bacterial clones comprising approximately 20,000 different artificial microRNAs targeting Arabidopsis or human genes. We achieved greater than 97% accuracy in these trials. The strategies reported here can be applied to a wide variety of biological problems, including the determination of genotypic variation within large populations of individuals.

High-throughput and Cost-effective Chicken Genotyping Using Next-Generation Sequencing.

Project description:Chicken genotyping is becoming common practice in conventional animal breeding improvement. Despite the power of high-throughput methods for genotyping, their high cost limits large scale use in animal breeding and selection. In the present paper we optimized the CornellGBS, an efficient and cost-effective genotyping by sequence approach developed in plants, for its application in chickens. Here we describe the successful genotyping of a large number of chickens (462) using CornellGBS approach. Genomic DNA was cleaved with the PstI enzyme, ligated to adapters with barcodes identifying individual animals, and then sequenced on Illumina platform. After filtering parameters were applied, 134,528 SNPs were identified in our experimental population of chickens. Of these SNPs, 67,096 had a minimum taxon call rate of 90% and were considered 'unique tags'. Interestingly, 20.7% of these unique tags have not been previously reported in the dbSNP. Moreover, 92.6% of these SNPs were concordant with a previous Whole Chicken-genome re-sequencing dataset used for validation purposes. The application of CornellGBS in chickens showed high performance to infer SNPs, particularly in exonic regions and microchromosomes. This approach represents a cost-effective (~US$50/sample) and powerful alternative to current genotyping methods, which has the potential to improve whole-genome selection (WGS), and genome-wide association studies (GWAS) in chicken production.

Multiplexed Illumina sequencing libraries from picogram quantities of DNA.

Project description:High throughput sequencing is frequently used to discover the location of regulatory interactions on chromatin. However, techniques that enrich DNA where regulatory activity takes place, such as chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP), often yield less DNA than optimal for sequencing library preparation. Existing protocols for picogram-scale libraries require concomitant fragmentation of DNA, pre-amplification, or long overnight steps.We report a simple and fast library construction method that produces libraries from sub-nanogram quantities of DNA. This protocol yields conventional libraries with barcodes suitable for multiplexed sample analysis on the Illumina platform. We demonstrate the utility of this method by constructing a ChIP-seq library from 100 pg of ChIP DNA that demonstrates equivalent genomic coverage of target regions to a library produced from a larger scale experiment.Application of this method allows whole genome studies from samples where material or yields are limiting.

High-throughput DNA extraction and cost-effective miniaturized metagenome and amplicon library preparation of soil samples for DNA sequencing.

Project description:Reductions in sequencing costs have enabled widespread use of shotgun metagenomics and amplicon sequencing, which have drastically improved our understanding of the microbial world. However, large sequencing projects are now hampered by the cost of library preparation and low sample throughput, comparatively to the actual sequencing costs. Here, we benchmarked three high-throughput DNA extraction methods: ZymoBIOMICS™ 96 MagBead DNA Kit, MP BiomedicalsTM FastDNATM-96 Soil Microbe DNA Kit, and DNeasy® 96 PowerSoil® Pro QIAcube® HT Kit. The DNA extractions were evaluated based on length, quality, quantity, and the observed microbial community across five diverse soil types. DNA extraction of all soil types was successful for all kits, however DNeasy® 96 PowerSoil® Pro QIAcube® HT Kit excelled across all performance parameters. We further used the nanoliter dispensing system I.DOT One to miniaturize Illumina amplicon and metagenomic library preparation volumes by a factor of 5 and 10, respectively, with no significant impact on the observed microbial communities. With these protocols, DNA extraction, metagenomic, or amplicon library preparation for one 96-well plate are approx. 3, 5, and 6 hours, respectively. Furthermore, the miniaturization of amplicon and metagenome library preparation reduces the chemical and plastic costs from 5.0 to 3.6 and 59 to 7.3 USD pr. sample. This enhanced efficiency and cost-effectiveness will enable researchers to undertake studies with greater sample sizes and diversity, thereby providing a richer, more detailed view of microbial communities and their dynamics.

Evaluation of the MGISEQ-2000 Sequencing Platform for Illumina Target Capture Sequencing Libraries.

Project description:Illumina is the leading sequencing platform in the next-generation sequencing (NGS) market globally. In recent years, MGI Tech has presented a series of new sequencers, including DNBSEQ-T7, MGISEQ-2000 and MGISEQ-200. As a complex application of NGS, cancer-detecting panels pose increasing demands for the high accuracy and sensitivity of sequencing and data analysis. In this study, we used the same capture DNA libraries constructed based on the Illumina protocol to evaluate the performance of the Illumina Nextseq500 and MGISEQ-2000 sequencing platforms. We found that the two platforms had high consistency in the results of hotspot mutation analysis; more importantly, we found that there was a significant loss of fragments in the 101-133 bp size range on the MGISEQ-2000 sequencing platform for Illumina libraries, but not for the capture DNA libraries prepared based on the MGISEQ protocol. This phenomenon may indicate fragment selection or low fragment ligation efficiency during the DNA circularization step, which is a unique step of the MGISEQ-2000 sequence platform. In conclusion, these different sequencing libraries and corresponding sequencing platforms are compatible with each other, but protocol and platform selection need to be carefully evaluated in combination with research purpose.

Sequence capture using AFLP-generated baits: A cost-effective method for high-throughput phylogenetic and phylogeographic analysis.

Project description:Target sequence capture is an efficient technique to enrich specific genomic regions for high-throughput sequencing in ecological and evolutionary studies. In recent years, many sequence capture approaches have been proposed, but most of them rely on commercial synthetic baits which make the experiment expensive. Here, we present a novel sequence capture approach called AFLP-based genome sequence capture (AFLP Capture). This method uses the AFLP (amplified fragment length polymorphism) technique to generate homemade capture baits without the need for prior genome information, thus is applicable to any organisms. In this approach, biotinylated AFLP fragments representing a random fraction of the genome are used as baits to capture the homologous fragments from genomic shotgun sequencing libraries. In a trial study, by using AFLP Capture, we successfully obtained 511 orthologous loci (>700,000 bp in total length) from 11 Odorrana species and more than 100,000 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in four analyzed individuals of an Odorrana species. This result shows that our method can be used to address questions of various evolutionary depths (from interspecies level to intraspecies level). We also discuss the flexibility in bait preparation and how the sequencing data are analyzed. In summary, AFLP Capture is a rapid and flexible tool and can significantly reduce the experimental cost for phylogenetic studies that require analyzing genome-scale data (hundreds or thousands of loci).

Cost-effective high-throughput single-haplotype iterative mapping and sequencing for complex genomic structures.

Project description:The reference sequences of structurally complex regions can be obtained only through highly accurate clone-based approaches. We and others have successfully used single-haplotype iterative mapping and sequencing (SHIMS) 1.0 to assemble structurally complex regions across the sex chromosomes of several vertebrate species and to allow for targeted improvements to the reference sequences of human autosomes. However, SHIMS 1.0 is expensive and time consuming, requiring resources that only a genome center can provide. Here we introduce SHIMS 2.0, an improved SHIMS protocol that allows even a small laboratory to generate high-quality reference sequence from complex genomic regions. Using a streamlined and parallelized library-preparation protocol, and taking advantage of inexpensive high-throughput short-read-sequencing technologies, a small laboratory with both molecular biology and bioinformatics experience can sequence and assemble 192 large-insert bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) or fosmid clones in 1 week. In SHIMS 2.0, in contrast to other pooling strategies, each clone is sequenced with a unique barcode, thus enabling clones containing nearly identical sequences to be multiplexed in a single sequencing run and assembled separately. Relative to SHIMS 1.0, SHIMS 2.0 decreases the required cost and time by two orders of magnitude while preserving high sequencing accuracy.
