Authors: Alison Devault, Ph.D. (Daicel Arbor Biosciences) 

With the recent launch of multiple novel high-throughput sequencing (HTS) platforms, the landscape of HTS workflow options is richer than ever before. Choosing a targeted sequencing solution that is compatible with sequencing on any current or future HTS platform is important for maximizing the utility of a given assay. The myBaits® hybridization capture system from Daicel Arbor Biosciences is by design universally compatible with virtually any HTS workflow, whether short- or long-read. With highly versatile custom probe design algorithms and platform-agnostic protocol options, myBaits is a robust solution for achieving any DNA or RNA targeted sequencing need for any species or sample type. In this poster, we highlight the technical features of myBaits that permit its unique versatility in the modern HTS landscape, including data examples demonstrating its universal application with both short- and long-read HTS platforms relevant to the plant and animal genomics community.

Authors: Linda Barthel, Jake Enk, Tina Lan, Benjamin Steil (Daicel Arbor Biosciences) 

Abstract: In situ hybridization (ISH) probes built from pools of synthetic single-stranded oligonucleotides are more specific and versatile than probes derived from BACs and other biological sources. The myTags® Custom ISH probe system from Daicel Arbor Biosciences utilizes a sophisticated in silico design process to identify and eliminate repetitive and other nonspecific elements that BAC-derived probes typically retain. Here we demonstrate the high specificity of customized myTags probe sets compared to BAC-derived alternatives, and outline design and experimental recommendations key to plant and animal genomics applications where enhanced specificity and versatility is critical. Combined with flexible synthesis and reporter labeling configurations, myTags represents an ideal and cost-effective toolset for a wide variety of genomics applications including chromosome painting and identification, haplotyping, and 3D/4D spatial genomics analysis.
