Antibody repertoire sequencing: Dr. Jiang Zhu

Written by | Published: 11.21.2014

A growing area of research is using next-generation sequencing for sequencing the immune repertoire, which requires very long reads (400 base pairs and longer). Dr. Jiang Zhu of The Scripps Research Institute (La Jolla, California USA) developed very long reads using an Ion PGM TM System and a modified 5’-RACE technique.

 

Their work was recently published here, in Scientific Reports.
