Note: Highlighting provided prior to 6/2012 was incorrect. It showed the Barcode Read 2 sequence as GATCT when in fact it is downstream of that site. We apologize for the error.

    BarcodeRead2:

    Optional. Example: GATCT. This is called "BarcodeRead2 because it is read after template flip, when Read2 is read. The GSAF does not normally sequence this barcode - please request if you need it read.

    Read1 primer site:

    Either the small RNA sequencing primer site: CAGGTTCAGAGTTCTACAGTCCGACGATC OR the standard TruSeq Read 1 primer site: ACACTCTTTCCCTACACGACGCTCTTCCGATCT. Which to chose? The TruSeq Read 1 primer site is complementary to the Read 2 primer site, so if you are designing amplicons do NOT use the TruSeq Read 1 primer site, use the small RNA sequencing primer site.

    Read2 primer site:

    Then the Index read primer site: AGATCGGAAGAGCACACGTCTGAACTCCAGTCAC (note the initial A is from the dA tailing of the insert and is not included in the index primer or adaptor sequences; note also the reverse-complement of this is the Read 2 sequencing primer, but the Read 2 sequencing primer includes the T corresponding to the dA insert tail so sequencing starts with the insert)
