Figure Lengend Snippet: A) The effect of performing DASH directly on unwashed Klenow reactions in 50 µL (unwashed 50 µL rxn) as opposed to performing DASH after a beads cleanup in 20 µL (washed 20 µL rxn), on the detection (left) and read length (right) of spiked PDV (Phocine distemper virus), of non-depleted transcripts PGK1 (phosphoglycerate kinase 1), ND1/ND2/ND6 (NADH dehydrogenase subunit 1/2/6), COI (cytochrome c oxidase subunit I), and CYB (cytochrome B), and of depleted ribosomal 18S and 28S RNA in metagenomic sequencing libraries of TURBO + DASH-depleted human serum samples. B) Increasing the Cas9 concentration lowers the loss of depletion observed when using direct DASH. C) Performing Klenow reactions in smaller volumes further reduces this loss of depletion
Article Snippet: This ribonucleoprotein complex was formed by a 10 min preincubation at 37 °C of 1 μL Cas9 buffer, 2300 ng sgRNAs, and 3.4 μL Cas9 enzyme (M0386S, NEB) added up to 10 μL with water.
