The xGen Inherited Diseases Hyb Panel enables research involving deeper sequencing of genomic regions containing genes and SNPs associated with inherited diseases. The panel targets disease-causing mutations as defined by The Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD®) to combine the ease of WES with the low per sample cost of targeted panels.
The xGen Inherited Diseases Panel consists of 116,355 xGen Hyb Probes—spanning approximately 11.1 Mb of the human genome. The probes are individually-synthesized and quality-controlled 120 mer oligonucleotides, bearing a 5′ biotin modification and manufactured using our proprietary Ultramer™ synthesis technology.
The xGen Hybridization Capture Core Reagents (xGen Hybridization and Wash Kit, xGen Universal Blockers, xGen Library Amplification Primer Mix, and/or xGen Human Cot DNA) are supplied separately.
NEW! The latest version of xGen™ Hyb and Wash v3 Kit Reagents is now available, offering:
-
Reduced minimum DNA input to 100 ng (from 500 ng)
-
Shortened hybridization time to 1 hour (from 4 hours)
-
Simplified workflow with no need for buffer preheating
-
Reduced number of wash steps to 3 washes (from 6 washes)
-
Overall preparation time reduced by 10% and hands-on time by 20%
