INNOVATIVE SEQUENCING & QUANTITATIVE MASS SPECTROMETRY FOR EPIGENETIC RESEARCH

QuGen offers the most recent long-read sequencing technologies

Customized Long Read Sequencing

A special focus of QuGen lies in the application of customized long read sequencing, which we currently offer through the Pacific Biosciences (SMRT Sequencing) platform.

With the help of our proprietary QuGen hpTET3 enzymes we oxidize 97-99 % of all epigenetic 5mCs in genomic material to 5cadC. AI-derived QuGen algorithms then allow the exact localization of the 5cadC bases in the genomic material using direct 3rd generation long-read SMRT sequencing. Because the technology does not require a PCR step, all biases associated with this step are eliminated, which provides unprecedented epigenetic data accuracy.

The QuGen technology allows sequencing of epigenetic 5mC in CpG and non-CpG contexts. Because it is based on long read sequencing even complex genomes (plants) and sequencing of highly repetitive elements can be performed. Sequencing of epigenetic 5hmdC, using a special QuGen direct SMRT sequencing protocol, is also possible. Please send us a request if you are interested to test the QuGen epigenetic 5mdC and 5hmdC sequencing technology for solving your scientific problems.
