Abstract

We recently reported a fragmentation-free method for the synthesis of Next-Generation Sequencing libraries called "ClickSeq" that uses biorthogonal click-chemistry in place of enzymes for the ligation of sequencing adaptors. We found that this approach dramatically reduces artifactual chimera formation, allowing the study of rare recombination events that include viral replication intermediates and defective-interfering viral RNAs. ClickSeq illustrates how robust, bio-orthogonal chemistry can be harnessed in vitro to capture and dissect complex biological processes. Here, we describe an updated protocol for the synthesis of "ClickSeq" libraries.
