Hiseq 2000 or 2500 sequencers
The HiSeq 2000 and HiSeq 2500 are high-throughput DNA sequencing instruments developed by Illumina. They are designed to rapidly sequence large amounts of DNA samples, generating millions of sequence reads per run. The core function of these sequencers is to perform massively parallel sequencing using reversible terminator chemistry, allowing for the determination of nucleotide sequences in DNA samples.

Extraction and Sequencing of Tumor RNA and DNA
For whole-exome sequencing (WES), DNA was extracted from fresh-frozen tumor samples or cultured tumor cells using the DNeasy Blood and Tissue Kit (Qiagen, Valencia, CA, USA). Genomic DNA was fragmented, end-repaired, and simultaneously ligated to the bar-coded sequencing adapters (Illumina), amplified, and size-selected. Whole-exome capture was performed using Agilent SureSelect Human All Exon 44-Mb version 2.0 bait set (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA, USA).14 (link) The resulting libraries were quantified using a quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), and 76 base-paired end reads were generated and sequenced using HiSeq 2000 or 2500 sequencers (Illumina).
Whole Exome and Transcriptome Sequencing of Tumor Samples
For RNA sequencing, RNA from fresh frozen tumor samples was extracted using the RNeasy Mini Kit. RNA-seq libraries were prepared using an Illumina TruSeq Stranded mRNA Library Prep Kit (for cell suspensions). Flow cell cluster amplification and sequencing were performed according to the manufacturer’s instructions using either a HiSeq2500.
The sequencing data have been deposited in the NCBI Sequence Read Archive (SRA) database under the accession code SRP (
Comprehensive RNA-seq and WES Sequencing
For WES sequencing, DNA was extracted from the fresh-frozen tumor samples or cultured tumor cells using DNeasy Blood and Tissue Kit, purchased from Qiagen. Genomic DNA was cut, end-repaired, simultaneously connected to the bar-coded Illumina sequencing adapters, ampli ed, and size-selected. Whole-exome capture was performed using Agilent Sure Select Human All Exon 44-Mb version 2.0 bait set (Agilent Technologies), The resulting libraries were quanti ed by qPCR, and 76-base paired-end reads were pooled and sequenced using HiSeq 2000 or 2500 sequencers (Illumina).
About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
