Abstract |
Mutation profiling of acute leukemias is a valuable tool for identifying genetic mutations with prognostic, predictive, therapeutic, and diagnostic utility. Technological advances, such as massively parallel sequencing, have allowed laboratories to assess for variation across dozens or hundreds of genes simultaneously with relatively low cost per target.Here, we describe a procedure for designing and using a TruSeq Custom Amplicon assay targeting genes involved in acute leukemias. This method is a fully customizable, amplicon-based assay for targeted resequencing, allowing interrogation of selected genomic regions of interest. The most readily available form of the assay allows sequencing of up to 1536 amplicons in a single reaction using a straightforward workflow. The ability to multiplex up to 1536 amplicons per reaction allows coverage of up to 650 kb of cumulative sequence and supports up to 96 samples per batch, depending on library size and desired sequencing depth. |
