PacBio Literature

PacBio long-read HiFi sequencing allows you to sequence the entire AAV genome with extraordinary accuracy and completeness so that you can quickly discover and optimize gene therapy vectors.

With highly accurate long reads (HiFi reads), powered by Single Molecule, Real-Time (SMRT) sequencing technology, you can more comprehensively validate gene editing techniques such as CRISPR-Cas9 approaches.

Highly accurate long-read sequencing provides more complete and unbiased information crucial for cell and gene therapy development, ensuring the confidence you need to advance your projects.

PacBio long-read sequencing technology and Form Bio’s streamlined data analysis now offer an all-in-one solution to optimize your AAV vector designs. This workflow can help enable desired gene therapy outcomes, providing you with the confidence and assurance to take your gene therapy research to new heights and stay ahead of the curve.

With Single Molecule, Real-Time (SMRT®) sequencing on the Sequel® IIe systems, you can sequence AAV genome populations to identify truncation, mutation, and host integration events. The AAV workflow from PacBio® accommodates both scAAV and ssAAV constructs with easy on-instrument HiFi read generation

High-quality HiFi reads detect a wide range of cancer-specific somatic variation including single nucleotide variants (SNVs), structural variants (SVs), insertions and deletions (indels), copy number variations (CNVs), and methylation in a single assay. HiFi sequencing shows improved somatic variant calling accuracy with less sequencing relative to other technologies.

This Application note provides the workflow for the detection of somatic small variants, structural variants, and methylation for paired tumor-normal samples with HiFi whole genome sequencing (WGS)

Kinnex offers full-length isoform discovery and abundance information, cell type-specific isoform discovery, and species-level metagenomics community identification that are difficult to capture with short reads.

SMRT® Link software tools for PacBio® HiFi sequencing systems are designed to set up and monitor sequencing runs, review performance metrics, and analyze, visualize, and annotate sequencing data. SMRT Link is available for both local installation and cloud access, offering flexibility to work in different environments depending on your lab’s needs.

The Revio™ system empowers HiFi sequencing. It adds affordability, high throughput, and ease of use to a foundation of long reads, exceptional accuracy, and direct methylation detection.
