Most modern methods for NGS library prep require the use of enzyme processing, such as DNA polymerase reactions, which can introduce errors in the form of incorrect sequence and misrepresented copy number. Conventional RNA sequencing library construction involves the ligation of a population of cDNA molecules with adapters prior to amplification and sequencing. With Molecular Indexed™ libraries, each molecule is tagged with a molecular index randomly chosen from ~10,000 combinations so that any two identical molecules become distinguishable (with odds of 10,000/1), and can be independently evaluated in later data analysis. Analysis using molecular indexing information provides an absolute, digital measurement of gene expression levels, irrespective of common amplification distortions observed in many RNA-Seq experiments.
