Tagify™ i5 UMI Adapter-loaded Transposase
Tagify™ i5 UMI Adapter-loaded Transposase reagents are for tagmentation-based NGS library preparation for simple, scalable, and reliable unique molecular identifier (UMI) addition. Accelerate your variant calling efforts with peace of mind.
- Quickly and reliably fragment and tag genomic DNA via loaded Tn5 transposase
- Sequence tag includes Illumina-compatible i5 barcode and UMIs
- Fully QC’d loaded transposase for reproducible tagmentation with certificate of analysis available
- Applications* include targeted sequencing assays, counting assays requiring UMI addition, CRISPR QC, and cell and gene editing QC
How Can Tagify UMI’s Help You?
“We use seqWell’s custom Tagify reagent for our UDiTaS process. The batches are consistent and provide similar tagmentation profiles and editing results. The reactions can be scaled from 96 to 384 wells, and we’ve been able to process thousands of reactions over one year.”
– Georgia Giannoukos, Ph.D., Director of Next Generation Sequencing, Editas Medicine
Tagify i5 UMI Adapter-loaded Transposase
- Each transposase is loaded with a full-length Illumina-compatible P5 + i5 + UMI + R1 adapter
- 10-bp i5 barcode and 10-bp UMI
- Available in sets of 24 or 96 loaded transposases
Recorded Webinar
Assessing CRISPR On-Target Editing and Structural Changes
In this webinar, Dr. Giannoukos highlighted how her team combined a custom Tagify reagent with their UDiTaS method to measure large deletions and inversions at the CEP290 editing site.
She also incorporated data demonstrating reproducibility of different Tagify batches. This webinar was transcribed into a blog if you prefer to read along.
Tagify UMI in Action
Multiplexed NGS-based QC Tools for Genome Editing Applications
Tagmenting DNA using Tagify i5 UMI loaded transposases requires a single 15-minute incubation at 55°C followed by reaction clean-up. Tagged DNA can then seamlessly integrate into downstream applications* such as gene editing assays like UDiTaS, RGEN, TTIS-seq, CHANGE-seq and others.
