The Single Cell 5' protocols offer comprehensive, scalable solutions for measuring immune repertoire information and gene expression from the same cell. Profile fulllength (5' UTR to constant region), paired T-cell receptor (TCR), or B-cell receptor (BCR) transcripts from 500-10,000 individual cells per sample. A pool of ~750,000 barcodes are sampled separately to index each cell’s transcriptome. It is done by partitioning thousands of cells into nanoliter-scale Gel Beads-in-emulsion (GEMs), where all generated cDNA share a common 10x Barcode. Libraries are generated and sequenced and 10x Barcodes are used to associate individual reads back to the individual partitions. This document outlines the protocol to generate a T-cell library and/or a B-cell library, and/or a 5' Gene Expression library from amplified cDNA from the same cells.

The 10x Genomics 3' CellPlex Kit provides a species agnostic sample multiplexing solution through the use of a set of 12 Feature Barcode oligonucleotides each conjugated to a lipid. Individual cells or nuclei samples can be labeled with a Cell Multiplexing Oligo (CMO) and then pooled together prior to loading onto a 10x
Genomics chip. The Feature Barcode molecules can be directly captured by the oligos present on the Gel Beads inside a GEM during GEM-RT and subsequently
amplified (see Stepwise Objectives for assay scheme specifics). The amplified DNA generated from the Feature Barcode molecules can be used for Cell Multiplexing
Library Construction. Upon sequencing and processing the data through Cell Ranger, pooled samples can be bioinformatically demultiplexed and analyzed as individual samples, with identified cell multiplets excluded.

The Illumina DNA Prep protocol uses tagmentation, and enzymatic reaction, to fragment DNA and add adapter sequences and is compatible with DNA inputs of 1–500 ng or higher. For human DNA samples and other large complex genomes, the recommended minimum DNA input is 100–500 ng. For small genomes (eg microbial), the DNA input amount can be reduced to as low as 1 ng (modifying the PCR cycling
conditions accordingly). Assess DNA purity to make sure that the initial DNA sample does not contain > 1 mM EDTA and is free of organic contaminants, such as phenol and ethanol. These substances can interfere with the tagmentation reaction and result in assay failure.

The QuantSeq FWD Kit is an all-in-one library preparation protocol designed to generate Illumina compatible libraries of sequences close to the 3’ end of polyadenylated RNA.

The kit is ideal for gene expression counting as NGS reads are generated towards the poly(A) tail. To get the exact 3’ transcript end longer reads are necessary.

QuantSeq FWD Kits are delivered with several indexing options:

• Unique Dual Indexing with the Lexogen UDI 12 nt Sets (Cat. 113.96, 129-131.96, 114.96, 115.384) with up to 384 Unique Dual Indices.
• Single Indexing with the Lexogen i7 6 nt Index Sets (Cat. No. 015.24/96/2×96)
• Combinatorial Dual Indexing with the Lexogen i7 6 nt Index Set and i5 6 nt Dual Indexing Add-on Kit (015.384)

The Single Cell 5' protocols offer comprehensive, scalable solutions for measuring immune repertoire information and gene expression from the same cell. Profile fulllength (5' UTR to constant region), paired T-cell receptor (TCR), or B-cell receptor (BCR) transcripts from 500-10,000 individual cells per sample. A pool of ~750,000 barcodes are sampled separately to index each cell’s transcriptome. It is done by partitioning thousands of cells into nanoliter-scale Gel Beads-in-emulsion (GEMs), where all generated cDNA share a common 10x Barcode. Libraries are generated and sequenced and 10x Barcodes are used to associate individual reads back to the individual partitions. This document outlines the protocol to generate a T-cell library and/or a B-cell library, and/or a 5' Gene Expression library from amplified cDNA from the same cells.

The 10x Genomics 3' CellPlex Kit provides a species agnostic sample multiplexing solution through the use of a set of 12 Feature Barcode oligonucleotides each conjugated to a lipid. Individual cells or nuclei samples can be labeled with a Cell Multiplexing Oligo (CMO) and then pooled together prior to loading onto a 10x
Genomics chip. The Feature Barcode molecules can be directly captured by the oligos present on the Gel Beads inside a GEM during GEM-RT and subsequently
amplified (see Stepwise Objectives for assay scheme specifics). The amplified DNA generated from the Feature Barcode molecules can be used for Cell Multiplexing
Library Construction. Upon sequencing and processing the data through Cell Ranger, pooled samples can be bioinformatically demultiplexed and analyzed as individual samples, with identified cell multiplets excluded.

By using a pulsed-field power supply, large molecular weight DNA fragments can be separated and nucleic acids detected into the femtogram range. Compared to other non-denaturing gel-based analytical instruments, the Femto Pulse system easily achieves 10 times higher sensitivity for nucleic acid smears and up to 100 times higher sensitivity for nucleic acid fragments.

The ability to separate high molecular weight DNA up to 165 kb and detect nucleic acids down to 50 fg/µL input concentration make the Femto Pulse system ideal for long-read NGS QC, gDNA, small RNA, or cfDNA analysis from low concentration samples.

• Reliable Sizing - Accurate and precise sizing of HMW gDNA samples ranging from 1,300 bp to 165 kb
• Reduced Time to Results - Optimized pulsed-field separation methods decrease QC analysis time and eliminates the need for overnight PFGE separations
• Quality Metrics - Genomic Quality Number (GQN) quickly scores the integrity of HMW gDNA
• Ultra-Sensitive Detection - Input concentrations as low as 5 pg/µL
• Low Sample Volume - Only 2 µL required, conserving sample for downstream analysis

During the library prep, QC is needed for 5 times. 

The Ultra Sensitivity NGS kit for the Agilent Femto Pulse system is used for NGS library QC, providing sizing and quantification for DNA smears and fragments into the femtogram range. Detection of DNA smears as low as 5 pg/µL and quantification through 250 pg/µL makes the Ultra-Sensitivity NGS Kit ideal for quality control of low concentration NGS libraries. Other genomics applications include single cell genomics, PCR-free NGS libraries, and cfDNA QC.

Reliable sizing from 100-6000 bp, making the kit ideal for applications such as short-read NGS library QC, single cell genomics, and cfDNA.
