6 About Unincorporated Dye Terminators What Causes Unincorporated Dye Terminators in the Samples? What Do Unincorporated Dye Terminators Do? In BigDye terminator v3.0 cycle sequencing reactions, incomplete removal of the dye terminators may be due to: Problems with cycle sequencing reaction efficiency Suboptimal cleanup procedures Unincorporated dye terminators in the sequencing reaction can affect sequencing quality, particularly in systems with capillary electrokinetic injection. When unincorporated dye terminators are not removed completely, dye peaks can obscure portions of the sequencing electropherogram. This may cause the sequencing analysis software to make incorrect basecalls, particularly affecting its ability to determine peak 1 and start point locations. Location of Unincorporated Dye Terminators Figure 1 shows possible locations of BigDye terminator v3.0 unincorporated dye terminators. If the sequencing protocols and precipitation method in this user bulletin are followed correctly, unincorporated dye terminators located at positions 1, 4, 5, and 6 are removed completely. Occasionally, unincorporated dye terminators in positions 2 and 3 appear even when the precipitation method is performed carefully. If your application requires complete removal of unincorporated dye terminators, it may be more appropriate to use spin column cleanup protocols in place of alcohol precipitation. When used with an SDS heat treatment, commercially available products (e.g., Centri-Sep spin columns or the Gel Filtration Kit from Edge Biosystems) give very clean data. Note For more information, refer to the user bulletin Using an SDS/Heat Treatment with Spin Columns or 96-Well Spin Plates to Remove Unincorporated Dye Terminators (P/N ).

8 Factors to Consider with the Ethanol/Sodium Acetate Precipitation Method Overview The ethanol/sodium acetate precipitation method is used for the BigDye terminator v3.0 chemistry. When using this precipitation method, several important factors should be considered to ensure success, as listed in the table below. To ensure success, consider the following: Careful adherence to protocol instructions Concentration of ethanol/sodium acetate page 12. Concentration of DNA below. Centrifuge time and g force page 9. Type of ethanol used page 9. Type of plate or tube used page 10. Type of centrifuge used page 10. For a detailed discussion, see... the protocols, beginning on page 12. DNA Concentration Versus Unincorporated Dye Terminators In most cases, more DNA template in the cycle sequencing reaction can help consume more dye terminators. This improves cleanup efficiency and thereby increases signal strength. However, the sequence quality and read length may be compromised if too much DNA is injected; additionally, the sequencing resolution may be lost if the signal is too high. Figure 3 on page 9 shows the concentrations of DNA template in five BigDye terminator v3.0 cycle sequencing reactions, as follows: Electropherogram a. Plasmid ranging from ~ 3 to 6 kb DNA Template a 1 50 ng ng ng ng 5 1 µg Page 8 of 20 Precipitation Method to Remove Unincorporated Dye Terminators from ABI PRISM BigDye Terminator v3.0 Cycle Sequencing Reactions
9 Figure 3 DNA concentration versus unincorporated dye terminators. These reactions were cleaned using Centri-Sep spin columns. Centrifuge Time and g Force The relative centrifugal force (g) is dependent on the radius of the rotor and the speed of centrifugation. Since the revolutions per minute (rpm) will vary with the instrument and rotor, please calculate the correct g force using the equation below. The recovery of extended fragments increases with 30 minutes of centrifugation. Use this formula to calculate centrifuge spin speeds: g = x r x (rpm/1000) 2 where: g = relative centrifugal force rpm = revolutions per minute r = radius of the rotor in cm Type of Ethanol Used When exposed to air, absolute (100%) ethanol absorbs moisture from the air and becomes more dilute over time. This causes slight variations in concentration when absolute (100%) ethanol is used to generate 95% ethanol. To use the most accurate alcohol concentration and to minimize variations, we recommend using commercially prepared 95% ethanol.

10 Plate and Tube Types The ethanol/precipitation method described in this user bulletin is for use with: 96-well reaction plates 384-well reaction plates Microcentrifuge tubes 96- and 384-Well Reaction Plates The protocols designed for use with 96- or 384-well reaction plates were optimized using Applied Biosystems MicroAmp reaction plates. Other 96- or 384-well formats should work efficiently, though the maximum amount of ethanol/sodium acetate that can be added to each well may be limited. Some plates accommodate larger volumes than others. The plates used must tolerate spin speeds up to 3000 x g for at least 30 minutes. Microcentrifuge Tubes Use 1.5- or 0.5-mL microcentrifuge tubes. The tubes used must tolerate spin speeds up to 15,000 g for at least 20 minutes. Variable-Speed Centrifuge for 96-Well Reaction Plates The protocols designed for use with the 96-well reaction plates require the samples to be centrifuged at different speeds: the first spin at > 2000 x g for 30 minutes to retrieve sequencing extension products, and the inverted spin at 50 x g for 1 minute to remove any remaining ethanol after decanting. Therefore, a variable-speed centrifuge functioning at the recommended spin speeds is essential for the success of these protocols.

11 Technical Tips Tips for Optimal Protocol Performance Follow these suggestions to ensure optimal protocol performance. After the addition of ethanol/sodium acetate, ensure that the solution is mixed thoroughly with the aqueous cycle sequencing sample. After the addition of ethanol/sodium acetate, let the samples sit at room temperature for at least 15 minutes for maximum precipitation of extension fragments. When using 96- or 384-well reaction plates, invert spin immediately after the 30-min spin. When using microcentrifuge tubes, aspirate off the supernatant immediately after the 20-min spin. If the inverted spin or aspiration is not performed immediately, the pellets may loosen and become lost during the spin or aspiration, resulting in weak signals. If the pellet is left in ethanol/sodium acetate solution for more than 1 minute, spin the samples again at: A spin speed greater than 2000 x g for 5 minutes for the 96- or 384-well reaction plates Maximum speed for 5 minutes for the microcentrifuge tubes When using microcentrifuge tubes, aspirating the supernatant is more effective than decanting. If performed carefully, aspiration removes nearly all of the supernatant. If your centrifuge cannot achieve a centrifugal force of 2000 g, a portion of the extension products may be lost. Work from a fresh source of 95% ethanol. Repeated opening can lead to ethanol evaporation and an ethanol concentration lower than 95%. Extension fragments are then difficult to precipitate, resulting in weak signals. To avoid evaporation of ethanol, aliquot to small bottles and keep tightly sealed when not in use. Use nondenatured ethanol. Denatured ethanol may contain additives such as benzene, toluene, methanol, etc. that may fluoresce during sequencing. Do not dry the inside of the tube with tissue.

12 Section: Ethanol/Sodium Acetate Precipitation Method Considerations For most applications, the ethanol/sodium acetate precipitation method can give clean data. This method produces consistent signal, while minimizing unincorporated dye terminators. While the ethanol/sodium acetate precipitation method produces clean signal (i.e., a low amount of blobs), it may cause loss of small molecular weight fragments. In This Section The following topics are covered in this section: Topic See Page Ethanol/Sodium Acetate Concentrations 12 Ethanol/Sodium Acetate Precipitation in 96-Well Reaction Plates 15 Ethanol/Sodium Acetate Precipitation in Microcentrifuge Tubes 16 EDTA/Ethanol/Sodium Acetate Precipitation in 384-Well Reaction Plates 18 Ethanol/Sodium Acetate Concentrations Optimum Final Concentrations The optimum final concentrations of ethanol and sodium acetate for BigDye terminator v3.0 precipitations are: 59% ethanol 90 mm sodium acetate, ph 4.6 Decreasing the ethanol concentration may result in the loss of short sequencing fragments. The combination of 59% ethanol and 90 mm sodium acetate minimizes unincorporated dye terminators and the loss of small fragments, but maintains good overall signal strength.

15 Another Option for Precipitation Another option for precipitation is to rinse with larger volumes of ethanol at the final 70% ethanol wash step. If you rinse with larger volumes of ethanol, there will be a greater dilution of excess dye terminators. Ethanol/Sodium Acetate Precipitation in 96-Well Reaction Plates 95% Ethanol Recommended IMPORTANT When exposed to air, absolute (100%) ethanol absorbs moisture from the air and becomes more dilute over time. This causes slight variations in concentration when absolute (100%) ethanol is used to generate 95% ethanol. To use the most accurate alcohol concentration and to minimize variations, we recommend using commercially prepared 95% ethanol. Precipitating in 96-Well Reaction Plates Note A final 70% ethanol wash is required. To precipitate a 20-µL reaction mixture in 96-well reaction plates: Step Action 1 a. Remove the 96-well reaction plate from the thermal cycler. b. Remove the cover from the reaction plate. 2 Prepare the ethanol/sodium acetate solution by combining the following for each sample: 3.0 µl of 3 M sodium acetate (NaOAc), ph µl of nondenatured 95% ethanol (EtOH) 14.5 µl of deionized water The final volume should be 80 µl for each sample.! WARNING CHEMICAL HAZARD. Ethanol is a flammable liquid and vapor. Exposure may cause eye, skin, and upper respiratory tract irritation. Prolonged or repeated contact may dry the skin. Exposure may cause central nervous system depression and liver damage. Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Read the MSDS, and follow the handling instructions. Wear appropriate protective eyewear, clothing, and gloves. 3 Add the following to each 20-µL reaction mixture: 80 µl of ethanol/sodium acetate solution (created in step 2 above) 4 Seal the wells with a piece of 3M Scotch Tape 431 or 439 adhesive-backed aluminum foil tape. Press the foil onto the wells to prevent any leakage. 5 Invert the reaction plate a few times or vortex for 15 sec to mix. 6 Leave the reaction plate at room temperature for at least 15 min to precipitate the extension products. Note Precipitation times <15 min will result in the loss of very short extension products. Precipitation times >24 h will increase the precipitation of unincorporated dye terminators.
