Targeted Hi-C: Uncovering local genome architecture in regions of interest

13 Apr 2020

Genome-wide conformational studies using Hi-C proximity ligation approaches can be expensive due to the total sequencing burden required. Here, Dovetail Genomics conducts a study in order to better understand whether overall sequencing costs can be reduced by combining targeted enrichment with Omni-C chemistry. Their results demonstrate the use of a hybrid capture panel with the Omni-C Kit on cell lines and cancerous tissues resulting in Omni-C Proximity Ligation libraries enriched for various genes implicated in cancer.

DNA SequencingDNA sequencing, such as sanger sequencing, is a biological technique that determines the precise order of nucleotide bases in a fragment or template of DNA. DNA sequencers and genetic analyzers are based on capillary electrophoresis, where labeled DNA fragments are electrophoretically separated by size as they migrate through a polymer. Find the best DNA sequencing products, including DNA sequencing kits, genomic libraries and genetic identity kits in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Next Generation SequencingNext-generation sequencing (NGS), also known as whole-genome sequencing, high-throughput sequencing and massive parallel sequencing, produces and analyses thousands to millions of nucleotide sequences at once. Sequencing systems operate via varying technologies depending on the manufacturer, including sequencing by synthesis, ligation, pyrosequencing, ion semiconductor and single-molecule real-time sequencing. For NGS, library preparation is paramount to successful sequencing. In this section, explore a range of library preparation kits, from targeted, amplicon-based or hybridization-based kits including epigenomic, transcriptomic and genomic workflows to fragmentation kits.
