Abstract excerpt
The inverted terminal repeats (ITRs) of adeno-associated virus (AAV) are notoriously difficult to sequence owing to their high GC-content (70%) and palindromic sequences that result in the formation of a very stable, 125 bp long, T-shaped hairpin structure. Here we evaluate the performance of two widely used next-generation sequencing platforms, 454 GS FLX (Roche) and MiSeq Benchtop Sequencer (Illumina), in...
