Opis ogólny

The 16S ribosomal RNA gene (16S rRNA) is a common bacterial marker, used as a target for microbial community profiling in microbiome metagenomic studies. The gene is composed of nine variable regions (V1-V9) interspersed between conserved regions. The most common 16S rRNA NGS assays target one or two regions using a single set of primers (e.g., V3-V4). However, this approach usually results in a poor bacterial detection and classification rate when the DNA input is of low-quality or when applying it on extremely low biomass samples.  The 5R-PLEX kit offers a complete solution to challenging biological samples where the standard 16S sequencing protocols fail to perform.   Sample types include:
  • Formalin-Fixed, Paraffin-Embedded (FFPE) tissue
  • Cancerous tumor tissue 
  • Degraded or damaged DNA  
  • Low biomass samples 
  • Fossil-derived and ancient DNA
The 5R-PLEX kit was developed in collaboration with Dr. Ravid Straussman of the Weissmann Institute, based off a technique that was featured in his Science publication focused on the human tumor microbiome characterization (Science2020 May 29;368(6494):973-980. doi: 10.1126/science.aay9189) . The kit targets five short variable regions along the 16S rRNA gene (V2, V3, V5, V6, V8) that are co-amplified in a multiplexed PCR within a single tube.   After sequencing, the output data is uploaded to our M-CAMPTM platform (Microbiome Computational Analysis for Multi-omics Profiling) and analyzed using the unique 5R-PLEX algorithm[2]. This new analysis approach computationally combines the amplified regions to reconstruct one coherent high-resolution microbial profile. Read more about our kit here.

The accuracy of microbial community surveys based on marker-gene and metagenomic sequencing (MGS) suffers from the presence of contaminants-DNA sequences not truly present in the sample. Contaminants come from various sources, including reagents. Appropriate laboratory practices can reduce contamination, but

Bacteria were first detected in human tumors more than 100 years ago, but the characterization of the tumor microbiome has remained challenging because of its low biomass. We undertook a comprehensive analysis of the tumor microbiome, studying 1526 tumors and
