About
CRI’s Sequencing Facility is a shared resource committed to enhancing research capacity for CRI and UT Southwestern scientists through the use of genomics-based technologies. The facility has an Illumina NextSeq 500 desktop Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) system optimized for high throughput, high speed and long reads.
Our core services include:
- NextSeq500 sequencing
- Midsized project with a handful of samples
- Transcriptome mRNA-seq
- Transcriptome total RNA-seq
- ChIP-seq
- Exome sequencing
- Targeted sequencing
- Amplicon sequencing (e.g. CRISPR screening libraries)
- 10xGenomics scRNA-seq and scATAC-seq
- Agilent Tapestation 2200 RNA/DNA analysis
- Qubit DNA quantification
