Workflow
Isolated RNA, as low as 20 ng, is converted to cDNA. This is followed by the library construction step, in which IL-N7 adapters, molecular barcodes, and sample indexes are incorporated into DNA fragments generated in the previous step. Library fragments now serve as templates for target enrichment using single primer extension. In this step, targets are enriched using a single gene-specific primer and a universal forward primer. The final step is library amplification and sample indexing (for dual indexing) using the IL-S5 sample index primer and a universal primer.
