Candida albicans is an opportunistic yeast and is the most common fungal pathogen found in the human body. C. albicans can be detected in the gastrointestinal tract, mouth, and vagina of approximately half of healthy adults. It is typically a commensal organism and makes up part of the natural human microflora; however it can overgrow and become pathogenic as a result of various conditions. For example, individuals who have taken recent courses of antibiotics, have a weakened immune system or have diabetes have an increased risk of developing a Candida albicans infection. When an overgrowth occurs, this can lead to common infections such as urinary tract infections, genital yeast infections, oral thrush, and mucocutaneous candidiasis. In the more severe cases, when Candida albicans enters the bloodstream or organs, it can lead to loss of sight, blood and bone infections, endocarditis, meningitis or inflammation of the intraabdominal lining.

The ChIP-Seq Library Prep Kit (illumina and MGI Platform) was developed for the construction of high quality ChIP-Seq libraries using 5 ng to 400 ng of ChIP DNA as input. The kit is compatible with ChIP DNA fragments generated from both enzymatic methods and physical methods (sonication, nebulization etc.).
ChIP-Seq Library Prep Kit Workflow
ChIP-Seq is the combination of chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) with next generation sequencing. It is a powerful tool for the analysis of global transcription factors and other proteins in diseases and biological pathways, and characterization of histone modifications in a genome-wide level at single-base resolution. ChIP-Seq delivers whole genome level of functional profiling of global transcription factors, and provides better understanding of epigenetic modifications.
Three index types are available for the ChIP-Seq Library Prep Kit of the illumina platform:
Non-index (Cat.# 30032): Libraries do not have index.
Index (Cat.# 30034): Each index primer contains a unique 6-base index sequence can be used for identification. 48 samples can be pooled together. Index information can be downloaded here.
Unique dual index (Cat.# 30036): The ChIP-Seq library multiplexing for 96 samples is possible. Our unique 4-Base Difference Index System have 8 bases index length and at least 4 bases are different from each other for better library identification. Our unique dual indexing primers remove sequencing errors such as index hopping, index contamination, mis-assignment, and other errors. Index information can be downloaded here.
Indexes are available for the MGI platform kits (Cat.# 34034).
