The Illumina 5-base solution provides a streamlined, end-to-end NGS library prep and analysis workflow for simultaneous methylation profiling and high-accuracy genetic variant calling.
Constellation technology utilizes a highly simplified NGS workflow that enables on-flow-cell library prep that completely eliminates standard library prep prior to sequencing. Standard cluster generation and SBS sequencing is combined with cluster proximity information in DRAGEN algorithms to unlock long-distance information. Early testing demonstrates enhanced mapping of challenging genomic regions, ultra-long phasing, and improved detection of large structural rearrangements.
