Abstract
This is the HiDEF-seq library preparation protocol for bulk, single-molecule fidelity, long-read sequencing. This version of the HiDEF-seq protocol is designed for high-quality DNA. See our paper "DNA mismatch and damage patterns revealed by single-molecule sequencing" (Liu & Costa et al.) for more information.
Introduction
Introduction
This is the HiDEF-seq v2 protocol with A-Tailing used for high-quality DNA as assessed by fragment size analysis (e.g., TapeStation). For low-quality DNA samples, refer to our paper for the relevant protocol: Liu & Costa et al. DNA mismatch and damage patterns revealed by single-molecule sequencing.
