Preparation of Nextera Adaptaters :

Nextera (NxT) adapters are prepared by hybridisation of the following primers :

AB
Nxt-XTv2-B-N701-TCAAGCAGAAGACGGCATACGAGATTCGCCTTAGTCTCGTGGGCTCGGAGATGTGTATAAGAGACAGT
Nxt-XTv2-B-3R-ac3-5phos/5Phos/CTGTCTCTTATACACATCTCCGAGCCCACGAGAC/3InvdT/

  • Preparation of the 5X annealing buffer (5X Tris NaCl buffer : 50 mM Tris, pH 7.5-8, 250 mM NaCl) :
  • 500 µl Tris-HCl 1M pH 7.5
  • 500 µl NaCl 5M
  • 9 ml H2O mol.-grade

  • Preparation of the adapters (40 µM 50 µL) :
  • Resuspend both primers in water to obtain 100 µM stocks
  • Mix 20 µl of each (Nxt-XTv2-B-N7XX-T and Nxt-XTv2-B-3R-ac3-phos5’)
  • Add 10 µl of 5X annealing buffer
  • Annealing reaction in a thermocycler (decrease temperature from 98 to 4C (-0.1C/cycle(10s/cycle)))

Before start
All steps and master mixes need to be kept on ice as much as possible. Thermocyclers need to be cooled at 4C before inserting sample plate.
