Reverse transcription was performed on individual wells. Following this, the entire plate was combined into one tube, since each cDNA is tagged with a unique Cell ID. subsequent targeted amplification and library construction steps were performed in a single tube and sequencing was performed on a MiSeq (two plates per sequencing run). The QIAseq UPX 3" Analysis software was used for primary analysis and mapping and single cell secondary analysis. The TSNE Plot (included in the QIAseq UPX software) provides a visual representation of the data from each cell, where the expression of genes is reduced to a low dimensional space. The clustering of the cells, based on the K-means method, is depicted by colors of the cells. For this experiment, two clusters of cells were observed, in line with the expected results based on the initial sorting parameters.QIAseq UPX 3’ Targeted RNA Panel Workflow Exhibits Strong Linearity from 10 pg to 1 ng Total RNA.The QIAseq UPX 3’ Targeted RNA Panel Library Kit was used to construct libraries from 10 pg, 100 pg and 1 ng aliquots of Human Universal total RNA. Reverse transcription was performed on six aliquots of each RNA amount (18 total aliquots). Following this, the 18 aliquots were combined into one tube, since each cDNA is tagged with a unique Cell/Well ID. Subsequent targeted amplification and library construction steps were performed in a single tube and sequencing was performed on a MiSeq. QIAseq UPX 3’ Analysis software was used for primary results mapping and deconvolution of the Cell/Well IDs. The average Unique Molecular Index (UMI) counts for each gene are plotted for 10 pg vs 100 pg (A) and 100 pg vs 1 ng (B) demonstrating the strong linearity of QIAseq UPX for both single cell and ultra-low input applications.QIAseq UPX 3’ Targeted RNA Panel Workflow Exhibits Strong reproducibility at Ultra-low Input RNA Amounts.The QIAseq UPX 3’ Targeted RNA Panel Library Kit was used to construct libraries from 380 replicates of 20 pg Human Universal total RNA aliquots. Reverse transcription was performed on each aliquot. Following this, the 380 aliquots were combined into one tube, since each cDNA is tagged with a unique Cell/Well ID. Subsequent targeted amplification and library construction steps were performed in a single tube and sequencing was performed on a MiSeq. QIAseq UPX 3" Analysis software was used for primary results mapping and deconvolution of the Cell/Well IDs. The average raw (non-normalized) Unique Molecular Index (UMI) counts and standard deviation for each gene are plotted demonstrating the strong reproducibility of QIAseq UPX at ultra-low input RNA amounts.Sample to Insight Workflow of QIAseq UPX 3’ Targeted RNA Enables Identification of Cells Isolated with the QIAscout System.The QIAseq UPX 3" Targeted RNA Panel Library Kit was used to construct targeted libraries from 96 cells isolated with the QIAscout System (32 cells were isolated from each cell line). Reverse transcription was performed on individual wells. Following this, the entire plate was combined into one tube, since each cDNA is tagged with a unique Cell ID. Subsequent targeted amplification and library construction steps were performed in a single tube and sequencing was performed on a MiSeq (two plates per sequencing run). QIAseq UPX 3" Analysis software was used for primary analysis and mapping and single cell secondary analysis. The TSNE Plot (included in the QIAseq UPX software) provides a visual representation of the data from each cell, where the expression of genes is reduced to a low dimensional space. The clustering of the cells, based on the K-means method, is depicted by colors of the cells. For this experiment, three clusters of cells were observed. This matches the expected results, as three different cell types were originally collected.PerformanceStrong reproducibility at ultra-low input RNA amountsDue to its LNA-enhanced chemistry, the QIAseq UPX 3’ Targeted RNA Panel workflow exhibits strong reproducibility at ultra-low input RNA amounts (see figure "QIAseq UPX 3’ Targeted RNA Panel workflow exhibits strong reproducibility at ultra-low input RNA amounts").Strong linearity from 10 pg to 1 ngThe QIAseq UPX 3’ Targeted RNA Panel workflow shows strong linearity from 10 pg to 1 ng (see figure "QIAseq UPX 3’ Targeted RNA Panel workflow exhibits strong linearity from 10 pg to 1 ng of total RNA").3" RNA-seq from single cellsQIAseq UPX 3" Targeted RNA Panels enable accurate gene expression using 3" RNA-seq from single cells (see figure "Sample to Insight Workflow of QIAseq UPX 3’ Targeted RNA Enables Identification of Cells Isolated with the QIAscout System"). The kit also enables sucessful identification of cell subtype clusters (see figure "Sample to Insight Workflow of QIAseq UPX 3’ Targeted RNA Enables Identification of Cell Subtype Clusters").​PrincipleQIAseq UPX 3" Targeted RNA Panels enable high-throughput next-generation sequencing (NGS) of up to 1000 polyadenylated RNAs on Illumina sequencers. These panels are intended for library construction and analysis of single cells, cell pellets and ultralow amounts of purified RNA. Single cells or isolated RNA are reverse transcribed and each RNA molecule is given a Unique Molecular Index (UMI) and well-specific IDs are assigned (up to 384 wells; Cell IDs). Following reverse transcription, all cDNAs are combined, enabling simplified library construction steps to be performed in a single tube (see figure "Principle of the QIAseq UPX 3" Targeted RNA Panel Workflow").ProcedureInnovative, optimized workflowQIAseq UPX 3" Targeted RNA Panels enable Sample to Insight, high-throughput next-generation sequencing (NGS) of polyadenylated RNAs from single cells on Illumina NGS instruments. In addition, QIAseq UPX is intended for library construction and analysis of cell pellets (up to 100 cells) and purified RNA (10 pg to 1 ng). QIAseq UPX presents an innovative advantage in that, during reverse transcription, each cell is tagged with a unique ID (up to 384 different IDs) and each RNA molecule is tagged with a unique index. Following reverse transcription, all cDNAs are combined, which enables all subsequent library construction steps to be performed in a single tube. This prevents sample mixup, saves substantial time and dramatically reduces library prep costs. Target enrichment technology further enhances the power of QIAseq UPX by enabling users to sequence specific genes of interest, which effectively increases sequencing depth and sample throughput, while minimizing cost. Universal library amplification then assigns up to 384 different sample IDs. Together, the combination of Cell IDs and the Sample IDs enables up to 147,456 targeted libraries to be sequenced together. Ultimately, QIAseq UPX data analysis enables primary mapping, single-cell clustering analysis and differential expression analysis. Collectively, the Sample to Insight workflow of QIAseq UPX defines a new generation of high-throughput NGS technologies.Applications High-throughput screening applications (e.g., toxicology research) Single-cell analysis Differential gene expression analysisProduct ResourcesYou are not authorized to download the resourceTemplate Files (4) Sort optionsSort alphabetically Template Set A: Setup custom library prep kit in BaseSpace Sequence Hub (NextSeq)Show detailsTemplate Set B: Setup custom library prep kit in BaseSpace Sequence Hub (NextSeq)Template Set B: Setup custom library prep kit in BaseSpace Sequence Hub (NextSeq)Show detailsTemplate Set C: Setup custom library prep kit in BaseSpace Sequence Hub (NextSeq)Show detailsTemplate Set D: Setup custom library prep kit in BaseSpace Sequence Hub (NextSeq)Show detailsShow allShow lessQuick-Start Protocols (2) Sort optionsSort alphabetically QIAseq UPX3" Targeted RNA Panel (Part 1)Part 1: Cell lysis, reverse transcriptionShow detailsQIAseq UPX 3" Targeted RNA Panel (Part 2)Part 2: Single primer extensionShow detailsShow allShow lessKit Handbooks (1) Sort optionsSort alphabetically QIAseq UPX 3" Targeted RNA Library HandbookShow detailsShow allShow lessNext Generation Sequencing (1) Sort optionsSort alphabetically Product Profile: QIAseq UPX 3" Targeted RNA PanelShow detailsShow allShow lessSupplementary Protocols (1) Sort optionsSort alphabetically QIAseq UPX 3’ RNA Read Analysis Supplementary ProtocolShow detailsShow allShow lessSafety Data Sheets (8) Sort optionsSort alphabetically MSDS QIAseq UPX 3" Targeted RNA Panel (96)MSDS QIAseq UPX 3" Targeted RNA Panel (96-M)MSDS QIAseq UPX 3" Targeted RNA Panel (384)MSDS QIAseq UPX 3" Targeted 96 index A (384)MSDS QIAseq UPX 3" Targeted 96 index B (384)MSDS QIAseq UPX 3" Targeted 96 index C (384)MSDS QIAseq UPX 3" Targeted 96 index D (384)MSDS QIAseq UPX 3" Targeted RNA 12 index (48)Show allShow lessfragment fix placeholder
