| 摘要 |
The present invention features, inter alia, compositions and methods for preparing, from a plurality of original, nucleic acid-containing samples, a unified library of linear, non-selectively amplified DNA fragments in which the proportional representation of the fragments from each of the plurality of original samples is normalized and the library is created in a highly parallelized, pool-based fashion. The invention is particularly useful for preparing libraries in which specific information is encoded that allows shorter sequencing reads derived from high-throughput sequencing of the library to be analyzed or assembled into longer scale sequences that are fully traceable to an original, nucleic acid-containing sample within a potentially very large collection of samples. The compositions of the invention encompass the various constructs described herein, which may be variously packaged with one or more additional reagents useful in the present methods and instructions for use. |
