Benefits

The MERCURIUS™ Full-Length DRUG-seq library preparation kits for Illumina® and AVITI™ contain all the oligos and enzymes needed to go from purified RNA to sequencing-ready libraries.

Multiplexed full-length mRNA-seq: Full-length mRNA-seq library prep, 96 samples in a single tube.

No need for RNA extraction: An optimized lysis buffer for RNA solubilization.

Full-length transcript coverage: From differential gene expression to splicing variants and isoform detection.

One-day lab workflow: Convenient and short protocol from samples to sequencing-ready libraries in one day.

FL DRUG-seq@300x-50-1

1. Uniform detection of 22'000+ genes at 12 million reads per sample across 48 samples

Distribution of the number of detected genes across 48 samples prepared with the MERCURIUS™ Full-Length BRB-seq service. The library was sequenced at an average of 12 million reads.

2. Full-Length BRB-seq shows high demultiplexing rate and high mapping rate to exons

Full-Length BRB-seq performance shows 99% demultiplexing rate from raw data, 78% mapping rate, and 18% duplication rate of the 48 pooled samples and sequenced at 12 million reads per sample.

3. Mapping rates as high as 80% for different RNA inputs

Mapping rates are uniform across three RNA inputs tested: 1ug, 10ng, and 100ng. Human Universal Reference RNA was used to prepare mRNA Full-Length BRB libraries.

4. Full-Length BRB-seq exhibits reads distribution across the transcript’s entire length

The gene body coverage shows a consistent and uniform reads distribution across the entire gene body for the Full-Length BRB-seq protocol, comparable to competitor N protocol, while the BRB-seq protocol shows a significant 3' bias due to its poly-A selection methodology.

5. >50'000 isoforms detected at 12M sequencing depth

Asset 1@300x

Benchmarking the Full-Length BRB-seq protocol against competitor N shows similar performance for isoform detection. More than 50,000 isoforms can be detected at a sequencing depth of 12M reads per sample.

For (application)	Full-Length mRNA sequencing
For use with (equipment)	Illumina and AVITI NGS instruments
Species compatibility	All eukaryotic species
Available formats	96 and 384 preps
Shipping conditions	Dry ice
Storage conditions	-20C

FAQs

The barcode set for your kit is conveniently located on the kit label. Please refer to the label for accurate identification.

For optimal compatibility, ensure that you use the appropriate plate format (e.g., for kits designed for 96 reactions, the 96 well-plate format should be used). This ensures accurate and efficient processing of your samples. If you have any further questions or concerns, please contact our support team for assistance by email or using our live chat tool.
