=================================================== Transposon Sequencing (2009) =================================================== At least four different groups developed technology to identify transposon insertion sites via short-read sequencing. All of the technologies are widely adaptable to various organisms. There are differences in the type of tranpsoson used (mariner/Tn5) and method to enrich the transposon-chromsome junctions, but generally break down into two strategies (from `van Opijnen and Camilli 2003 `__) .. figure:: images/van_Opijnen_2003_fig1.jpg :scale: 30 % :align: center :alt: INSeq/Tn-Seq ----- Key references for INSeq, Tn-Seq etc.: ===================================== ====== Discovery Notes ===================================== ====== `Goodman et al. 2009`__ INSeq (MmeI-based) `van Opijnen and Camilli 2009`__ Tn-Seq (MmeI-based) `Gawronski et al. 2009`__ HITS (MmeI-independent) `Langridge et al. 2009`__ TraDIS (MmeI-independent) `Gallagher et al. 2011`__ Circularization, RE-dependent ===================================== ====== __ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19748469 __ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19767758 __ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19805314/ __ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19826075/ __ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21253457 ===================================== ====== Review Articles Notes ===================================== ====== `van Opijnen and Camilli 2003`__ Broad overview `Chao et al. 2016`__ Analysis of dense libraries, bottlenecks `Kwon et al. 2016`__ Studies using transposon sequencing ===================================== ====== __ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23712350 __ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26775926 __ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26476650 ===================================== ====== Methods Notes ===================================== ====== `Goodman et al. 2011`__ Bead-based, detailed INSeq protocol. ===================================== ====== __ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22094732 ----- **For this workshop, we will focus on the Goodman & Gordon INSeq method, which is similar conceptually to the van Opijnen & Camilli Tn-Seq method.** The INSeq library preparation method was first described in `2009 `__ and was refined in `2011 `__ to use a biotinylated linear amplification step. Subsequent molecular steps occur with the sample immobilized on a magnetic streptavidin bead, which enables reactions to be performed in a multiplexed fashion with a low volume of reagents. .. figure:: images/goodman_2011_fig1.jpg :scale: 30 % :align: center :alt: Library prep ---- Next: :doc:`variations`
