Small RNA sequencing is inherently saddled with three distinct PROBLEMS!
Substantial bias introduced during ligation steps
Need to gel purify final library
Lack of low-input protocols
PROBLEM #1
PROBLEM #2
PROBLEM #3
PROBLEM #1Research shows extensive bias is typically
seen in small RNA sequencingBaran-Gale, J., Kurtz, L. C., Erdos, Sison, M. C., Young, A., Fannin, E. E., Chines, P. S. and Sethupathy, P. (2015) Addressing bias in small RNA library preparation for sequencing: a new protocol recovers microRNAs that evade
capture by current methods. Frontiers in Genetics. doi: 10.3389/fgene.2015.00352.
What causes this bias?
Research shows these inconsistencies are primarily caused by bias introduced during
the ligation step of library prep

What is the SOLUTION?
Published research shows randomized adapters reduce ligation bias

Bioo Scientific makes the only small RNA sequencing kits for Illumina platforms that
use randomized adapters to reduce ligase bias
The NEXTflex Small RNA-Seq Kit v3 shows more equal coverage of an equimolar
pool of 24 miRNAs (miRNA calibrator), demonstrating more accurate representation
of the original sample
Figure 1. Sequencing results from small RNA libraries created in triplicate from 1 ng of miRNA Calibrator, an equimolar mixture of 24 miRNAs. Values farther from 1 indicate more bias.

The use of randomized adapters in the NEXTflex Small RNA-Seq Kit v3 greatly improves accuracy of data by reducing
bias in small RNA library prep
CONCLUSION #1
The NEXTflex Small RNA-Seq Kit v3 allows detection of more miRNAs in
total RNA samples
Figure 3. Small RNA libraries were created in duplicate from human brain total RNA and sequenced on an Illumina MiSeq. The indicated number of reads was sampled from each library
and the average number of miRNA groups with ≥20 reads determined. The inset shows the number of reads required to detect 100 miRNA groups at a threshold of ≥20 reads.

Reduced bias small RNA library prep using the NEXTflex Small RNA-Seq Kit v3 allows detection of more small RNAs
at lower sequencing depth
CONCLUSION #2
PROBLEM #2Small RNA library preparation has historically
required PAGE gel purification due to the presence of adapter-dimer products
PAGE purification is tedious &time consuming
PAGE purification limits throughput & prevents start-to-finish automation
Elimination of adapter-dimer products allows gel-free purification of small RNA libraries
The NEXTflex Small RNA-Seq Kit v3 uses a dual approach to substantially reduce
adapter-dimer formation, allowing gel-free purification of final libraries
Gel-free libraries prepared with the NEXTflex Small RNA-Seq Kit v3 have a higher proportion of reads mapping
to miRNAs

Enhanced reduction of adapter-dimer formation allows gel-free library preparation
CONCLUSION #3
PROBLEM #3Lack of low-input protocols
Substantial reduction of adapter-dimers also allows low
input library preparation
Libraries can be prepared from as little as 1 ng total RNA
Low input libraries are achieved by using up to 25 cycles of PCR
PCR bias adds negligible bias to small RNA libraries
Correlation of miRNA expression demonstrates negligible bias added by
additional PCR cyclesPCR Cycles 12 16 20 24 28

Reduced-Bias Small RNA Library Preparation with Gel-Free or Low-Input Options
INTRODUCTION
Changes in microRNA (miRNA) expression have been shown to be associated with a variety of normal physiological processes, as well as diseases including cancer. Studies have already shown that miRNAs may provide useful markers for the development of disease
-
Bias is introduced into small RNA libraries during the ligation steps. Small RNA library preparation involves ligating adapters directly onto the 3’ and 5’ ends of the RNA molecule in two separate steps, and each of these ligation steps has been shown to introduce severe bias into library preparation. Recent studies have shown that inserting random bases at the ends of the adapters greatly reduces bias in comparison to using non-randomized adapters [1-4].
-ration. In typical DNA or RNA library prep, insert-containing molecules are at least 100 bp larger than adapter-dimer molecules, and thus can be removed using SPRI magnetic beads. However, since insert-containing molecules are only ~20 bp larger than adapter-dimer
size selection greatly limits both throughput and automation potential of small RNA library preparation, as only a limited number of libraries can be run on a single gel and it is a labor-intensive process that is not amenable to automation.
unique in that additional PCR cycles result in negligible bias; thus it should theoretically be possible to create low-input small RNA
products and leading to sequencing data where very few of the reads are useful. A number of methods have been developed to reduce
such an extent that gel-free or low-input small RNA library preparation is possible.
