Journal ArticleDOI
A tale of three next generation sequencing platforms: comparison of Ion Torrent, Pacific Biosciences and Illumina MiSeq sequencers.
Michael A. Quail,Miriam Smith,Paul Coupland,Thomas D. Otto,Simon R. Harris,Thomas R. Connor,Anna Bertoni,Harold Swerdlow,Yong Gu +8 more
TL;DR: All three fast turnaround sequencers evaluated here were able to generate usable sequence, however there are key differences between the quality of that data and the applications it will support.
Journal ArticleDOI
G&T-seq: parallel sequencing of single-cell genomes and transcriptomes
Iain C. Macaulay,Wilfried Haerty,Parveen Kumar,Yang I. Li,Yang I. Li,Tim Xiaoming Hu,Mabel J Teng,Mubeen Goolam,Nathalie Saurat,Paul Coupland,Lesley Shirley,Miriam Smith,Niels Van der Aa,Ruby Banerjee,Peter D. Ellis,Michael A. Quail,Harold Swerdlow,Harold Swerdlow,Magdalena Zernicka-Goetz,Frederick J. Livesey,Chris P. Ponting,Chris P. Ponting,Thierry Voet,Thierry Voet +23 more
TL;DR: G&T-seq, a method for separating and sequencing genomic DNA and full-length mRNA from single cells, is described and cellular properties that could not be inferred from DNA or RNA sequencing alone are discovered.
Journal ArticleDOI
SASI-Seq: sample assurance Spike-Ins, and highly differentiating 384 barcoding for Illumina sequencing
Michael A. Quail,Miriam Smith,David A. Jackson,Steven Leonard,Thomas Skelly,Harold Swerdlow,Yong Gu,Peter R. Ellis +7 more
TL;DR: SASI-Seq is a simple, inexpensive and flexible tool that enables sample assurance, allows deconvolution of sample mix-ups and reports levels of cross-contamination between samples throughout NGS workflows.
Journal ArticleDOI
An In-Solution Hybridisation Method for the Isolation of Pathogen DNA from Human DNA-rich Clinical Samples for Analysis by NGS
Miriam Smith,Susana Campino,Yong Gu,Taane G. Clark,Thomas D. Otto,Gareth Maslen,Magnus Manske,Mallika Imwong,Arjen M. Dondorp,Dominic P. Kwiatkowski,Michael A. Quail,Harold Swerdlow +11 more
TL;DR: This solution-based hybridisation method shows significant promise as an effective method to enrich pathogen DNA from samples with heavy human contamination, particularly when applied to GC-neutral genomes.
