Nanopore Sequencing
Nanopore Sequencing Services
SeqCenter is a Certified Provider of Oxford Nanopore Sequencing.
We use the latest PCR-free ligation library preparation (V14 chemistry) that provides reads equal to the length of the input DNA, which have been shown to assemble into complete genomes with as little as 12x coverage. All sequencing is performed on R10.4.1 flowcells run on a GridION platform and basecalling is included using the most up to date version of Guppy run in Super High Accuracy mode (with methylation pattern recognition) to achieve Q20 performance.
For each submitted sample, you will receive the raw data in both fast5 and fastq format, as well as BAM files with 5mC calls.
Nanopore Sample Requirements:
- Total volume of 60µL or more
- Eluted into water or dilute Tris/TE buffer
- Sample concentration of greater than:
- 40ng/µL measured by Qubit
- 100ng/µL measured by Nanodrop
What You Will Receive:
- Fastq file for each sample
- BAM file with 5mC Calls
- Materials and Methods Summary
- Data shared via Box folder within 2 weeks

Genomic Extraction Services
Genomic DNA isolation is available at a rate of $15 per sample for specific organisms
- Extractions will be performed using Zymo DNA Miniprep (bead beating lysis)
- We do not accept live BSL3 or above samples for extractions.
- Samples should be sent as sealed pre-grown agar plates or aspirated frozen cell pellets (10^9 cells recommended).
Hybrid Assembly Sequencing
When used in combination with Illumina reads (to improve accuracy at the nucleotide level), long read sequencing is a perfect choice for closing genomes and assembling communities. Our facility uses the latest, proven software to combine the two data types into a single, annotated genome file. Samples sequenced under these packages will receive both the Nanopore and Illumina raw reads, as well as the assembled and annotated genome in .fasta, .gbk and .gff format.
Hybrid Assembly Sample Requirements:
- Samples must be submitted in 2 tubes for Illumina and Nanopore sequencing
- Eluted into water or dilute Tris/TE buffer
- Sample concentration matching requirements for Illumina and Nanopore sequencing
What You Will Receive:
- 3 Fastq files for each sample, corresponding to Illumina and Nanopore raw data
- BAM file with 5mC Calls
- Assembled genome in .fasta format and annotated in .gff and .gbk formats
- Assembly Metrics and Summary
- Materials and Methods Summary
- Data shared via Box folder within 2 weeks
