New Service: 3’ QuantSeq RNA-seq library preparation
Cost-efficient, highly multiplexed and fast Poly(A) RNA-seq. Half the cost of regular RNA-seq preps! Please contact garpcore@bcm.edu for pricing.
New Illumina iSeq 100 Sequencer Installed
Our new low-throughput sequencer is ideally suited to run small projects such as pilot studies and target captures, and can be used to evaluate library quality and yield before large NovaSeq runs.
New Service: Whole Genome Bisulfite Sequencing
One-stop workflow. Submit your genomic DNA; we will take care of bisulfite conversion, library prep and sequencing. More information and performance data in our ABRF poster presentation.
About the Core
The Genomic and RNA Profiling Core (GARP) provides access to state-of-the-art genomic profiling technology and services, including:
- Sequencing only- Standalone sequencing of user-prepped samples as opposed to samples that go through library prep and sequencing in house.
- Library prep
- Next Gen Sequencing on our Illumina platforms (iSeq 100, NextSeq 500 and NovaSeq 6000)
- Nanostring nCounter Technology
- Sample Quality Control
- Nucleic acid shearing on the Covaris
- DNA size selection on the Pippin HT
- Consultation
- Primary Data Processing & Analysis
We provide a secure web-based online environment for service requests, sample tracking, data management and billing in our LIM system: GSLE
