Sequencing Platform from Clermont-Ferrand
The GENTYANE (GEnoTYpage and sequencing in AuvergNE) platform is affiliated to INRAE (Centre de Clermont-Theix) and particularly to the Biology and Plant Improvement Department (BAP).
The scientific objectives of the platform are:
(1) to support the research conducted in the various teams of the UMR GDEC
(2) to carry out genotyping and sequencing services on behalf of other INRAE teams or other public and private bodies
(3) to ensure a technological watch enabling new tools to be implemented that respond better, more quickly and at a lower cost to users’ expectations
(4) training of students but also of staff of our partners within the framework of collaborative projects
The team is composed of engineers and technicians, experts in genotyping and sequencing. We have a building with all the safety features: electrical, fire and access control.
Expertise
- Genotyping :
- SNP in KASPar technology (384 plates or microfluidics)
- Genotyping by AgriSeq Thermo GBS sequencing (from 300 to 3000 SNPs on several thousand individuals)
- SNP with AXIOM technology (up to 675000 SNP in chip format 96 and up to 55000 SNP in chip format 384).
- Microsatellites on capillary sequencer (96)
- Gene expression study on Fluidigm 48*48 or 96*96Genomics chip
- Sequencing : de novo sequencing, amplicons, resequencing, mate-pair sequencing
- Optical mapping : ultra HMW DNA extraction, labelling and transfer to Bionano Genomics array, Saphyr equipment
- High throughput DNA extraction : the GENTYANE platform offers automated DNA extraction in Sbeadex or LifeStock chemistry (magnetic beads) on an oKtopure robot with a throughput of 1536 samples per day.
