  • Publication number: 20150259674
    Abstract: The invention provides for methods for uniquely labeling populations of nucleic acids of interest in emulsion droplets using random combinations of oligonucleotides. The labeling methodology of the invention may be used, inter alia, to generate mate pair genomic fragments without the need for circularization. Because the method is independent of circularization, mate pairs can be generated from any length genomic fragment.

  • Publication number: 20140228223
    Abstract: The present invention is related to genomic nucleotide sequencing. In particular, the invention describes a paired end sequencing method that improves the yield of long-distance genomic read pairs by constructing long-insert clone libraries (i.e., for example, a fosIll library or a fosCN library) and converting the long-insert clone library using inverse polymerase chain reaction amplification or shearing and recircularization of shortened fragments into a library of co-ligated clone-insert ends. The resultant jumping libraries are compatible with massively parallel sequencing techniques. The compositions and methods disclosed herein contemplate sequencing complex genomes as well as detecting chromosomal structural rearrangements.
