Core facility that provides the following services: Illumina sequencing service, 5500xl sequencing service. The recent boon in high-throughput sequencing technologies has offered enormous potential to applications in genome sequencing, transcriptome profiling, epigenetics, metagenomics, discovery of non-coding RNAs and protein binding sites. A primary mission of PGFI is to lead the development of new genomics technologies at the University of Pennsylvania. In response to the ever growing demand for high-throughput sequencing at Penn, PGFI?s HTS facility was established. In this facility, investigators have access to different types of HTS technology: Illumina?s HiSeq and Applied Biosystem?s SOLiD4 and 5500xl. With two HiSeqs, the facility can provide the latest innovation from Illumina featuring up to 3 billion paired-end reads (up to 100x100 bp reads) per flow cell, 8 lanes per flow cell and 2 flow cells per machine. With the SOLiD4, the facility can provide up to 1.4 billion reads per slide, 50 x 25 bp paired-end reads, up to 8 sectors per slide and 2 flow cells per machine. With the 5500xl, the facility can provide up to 180 Gb or more than 2.8 B reads per run. The 5500xl offers 75 bp fragment runs, 75x35 bp paired-end runs and up to 60 bp x 60 bp mate paired runs with the added bonus of pay-as-you-go sequencing. All platforms offer multiplexing capability. Currently Illumina offers 48 barcodes and Life Technologies offers 96 barcodes. The SOLiD 4 system provides greater than 99.94% accuracy due to 2-base encoding.

ESF project support comes under four categories: # New Funded Grants: The ESF supports researchers in planning proposals that will utilize ESF capabilities. For funded grants, the support should ideally begin at the early proposal stage. In consultation with the researcher, ESF can suggest practical and creative ways of obtaining and recording the desired data. # Support for Ongoing Funded Programs: The Engineering Support Facility has personnel and experience to repair and maintain laboratory instruments and equipment. In some cases, the existing laboratory instruments need some custom enhancements or adaptations for the particular science in view. ESF has experience going back over 35 years in custom modifications and enhancements to existing instruments. # Machine Shop: The ESF has a well-equipped machine shop and an expert instrument maker. # Pressure Test Facilities: The ESF operates a hydraulic pressure test vessel that can test pressure cases from 15 to 10,000 psia, with electronic feed-thru capability. The test vessel can accommodate objects up to 30 inches in outside diameter by 13 feet length.
