Studying microbial genomics and infectious disease? Learn how the PacBio Sequel II System can help advance your research, with first-hand perspectives from scientists who are investigating SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19. In this webinar, Melissa Laird-Smith (Mt. Sinai School of Medicine) discusses her work evaluating the impact of host immune restriction in health and disease with high resolution HLA typing. She is joined by Corey Watson (University of Louisville School of Medicine) who talks about overcoming complexity to elucidate the role of IGH haplotype diversity in antibody-mediated immunity. Hosted by Meredith Ashby, Director of Microbial Genomics at PacBio. Access additional PacBio resources…
The utility of new highly accurate long reads, or HiFi reads, was first demonstrated for calling all variant types in human genomes. It has since been shown that HiFi reads can be used to generate contiguous, complete, and accurate human genomes, even in repeat structures such as centromeres and telomeres. In this virtual workshop scientists from PacBio as well as Tina Graves-Lindsay from the McDonnell Genome Institute at Washington University share the many improvements we’ve made to HiFi sequencing in the past year, tools that take advantage of HiFi data for variant detection and assembly, and examples in numerous genomics…
Richard Kuo’s research at the Roslin Institute exploring non-coding RNA of avian species requires high accuracy. SMRT Sequencing on the PacBio Sequel II System and the Iso-Seq method have given him confidence in annotations across entire genomes and transcriptomes.
The Earlham Institute was one of the first labs to adopt the PacBio Sequel II System. Karim Gharbi, Head of Genomics Pipelines, discusses how SMRT Sequencing and HiFi reads have increased throughput and reduced costs for genome, transcriptome, and metagenomics projects.
Jeremy Schmutz discusses the increased throughput and reduced project costs using HiFi reads from the PacBio Sequel II System in his work sequencing, assembling, and analyzing a variety of genomes at the HudsonAlpha Institute for Biotechnology.
Highly accurate long reads, known as HiFi reads, are a new tool in scientists’ sequencing toolbox. Hear PacBio users share how they are using HiFi reads to explore the genomes, transcriptomes, metagenomes and the benefits HiFi reads provide for their addressing critical life science questions.
Accurate sequencing data is key for University of Florida scientist Ana Conesa. She is using PacBio HiFi reads from the Sequel II System to identity alternative isoforms and determine the functional impact of different isoform expression in her transcriptome research.
In this LabRoots webinar, Jonas Korlach the CSO of PacBio provides an introduction to PacBio HiFi sequence reads, which are both long (up to 25 kb currently) and accurate (>99%) at the individual single-molecule sequence read level andhave allowed for advances in de novo genome assemblies. Korlach reviews the characteristics of HiFi read data obtained with the Sequel II System, followed by examples of high-quality genome assemblies for human, plant and animal genomes including the different aspects of evaluating genome assemblies (contiguity, accuracy, completeness and allelic phasing) and illustrates their high quality by examples of resolving centromeres, telomeres, segmental duplications…
PacBio Systems are powered by Single Molecule, Real-Time (SMRT) Sequencing, a technology proven to produce exceptionally long reads with high accuracy. SMRT Sequencing allows you to accelerate your science with the complete range of PacBio applications to produce data you can trust.
The Sequel II System, powered by Single Molecule, Real Time (SMRT) Technology, delivers highly accurate long reads for a comprehensive view of genomes, transcriptomes and epigenomes.
PacBio Systems are powered by Single Molecule, Real-Time (SMRT) Sequencing, a technology proven to produce exceptionally long reads with high accuracy for sequencing data you and your customers can trust.
With Single Molecule, Real-Time (SMRT) Sequencing and the Sequel System, you can easily and cost effectively generate highly accurate long reads (HiFi reads, >99% single-molecule accuracy) from genes or regions of interest ranging in size from several hundred base pairs to 20 kb. Target all types of variation across relevant genomic regions, including low complexity regions like repeat expansions, promoters, and flanking regions of transposable elements.
With Single Molecule, Real-Time (SMRT) Sequencing and the Sequel Systems, you can easily and affordably sequence complete transcript isoforms in genes of interest or across the entire transcriptome. The Iso-Seq method allows users to generate full-length cDNA sequences up to 10 kb in length — with no assembly required — to confidently characterize full-length transcript isoforms.
With the PacBio no-amplification (No-Amp) targeted sequencing method, you can now sequence through previously inaccessible regions of the genome to provide base-level resolution of disease-causing repeat expansions. By combining the CRISPR/Cas9 enrichment method with Single Molecule, Real-Time (SMRT) Sequencing on the Sequel Systems you are no longer limited by hard-to-amplify targets.
