| − | The GTC has two high-throughput Solexa Genome Analyzers 2.0 (Illumina), which are currently being used for a variety of applications, including ChIP-Seq, miRNA sequencing and expression sequencing. Each next-generation sequencer can process up to 16 samples per week, with a data yield of approximately 10 million reads per sample. Read lengths are 17, 26 or 36 bases. This sequencing technology consists of binding randomly fragmented DNA to an optical flowcell .
| + | GTC offers Next-Generation sequencing on the Illumina platform. In addition we offer multiple options for library preparation from dsDNA or total RNA. |

| − | ChIP-Sequencing (or ChIP-Seq) combines chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) with DNA sequencing, allowing researchers to identify the binding sites of DNA-associated proteins. It can be used as an alternative to promoter or whole genome microarray hybridization or qPCR. http://illumina.com/downloads/ChIP-Seq_DataSheet.pdf

| − | ==[[PEM| Paired-end sequencing]] ==
| |
| − | The paired-end module of the GAII system allows both ends of a DNA fragment to be sequenced. This gives more specificity to alignment algorithms, especially in highly repetitive regions. The paired-end module allows for up to 36 bases of each end to be sequenced during the same sequencing run.

| |
| − | | |
| − | Digital Gene Expression Sequencing Service: Digital Gene Expression is similar to SAGE analysis.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Whole Transcriptome Analysis: Sequencing the entire transcriptome can reveal valuable information about exon boundaries and splice variants that may be missed by microarray analysis or Digital Gene Expression. Kits for whole transcriptome analysis are expected to be available from Illumina soon.
