title: GSM4889934: WT2; Streptococcus agalactiae; RNA-Seq
library_construction_protocol: Total RNA SV kit (Promega) and removal of trace DNA using Turbo DNA-free (Life Technologies). Library construction consisted of random fragmentation of the poly(A) mRNA, followed by cDNA production using random primers. The ends of the cDNA were repaired and A-tailed, and adaptors were ligated for indexing (with up to 12 different barcodes per lane) during the sequencing runs. The cDNA libraries were quantitated using qPCR in a Roche LightCycler 480 with the Kapa Biosystems kit (Kapa Biosystems, Woburn, Massachusetts) prior to cluster generation. Clusters were generated to yield approximately 725K–825K clusters/mm2. Cluster density and quality was determined during the run after the first base addition parameters were assessed.
