For enzymatic fragmentation of DNA for EM-seq, NEBNext UltraShear™ (NEB #M7634) is now available.
NEBNext Enzymatic Methyl-seq (EM-seq™) is a new method for identification of 5-mC and 5-hmC.
While bisulfite sequencing has been the gold standard for methylome analysis, this conversion treatment damages DNA, resulting in fragmentation, loss and bias.
In contrast, the highly effective enzyme-based conversion in the NEBNext Enzymatic Methyl-seq Kit minimizes damage to DNA and, with the supplied NEBNext Ultra™ II library preparation workflow reagents, produces high quality libraries that enable superior detection of 5-mC and 5-hmC from fewer sequencing reads.
Enzymatic fragmentation of DNA compatible with EM-seq workflows can be achieved using NEBNext UltraShear (NEB #M7634).

For specific detection of 5hmC, the NEBNext Enzymatic E5hmC-seq Kit (NEB #E3350) is now also available.

The NEBNext Enzymatic Methyl-seq Kit provides a high-performance enzyme-based alternative to bisulfite conversion for methylome analysis using Illumina® sequencing.
Libraries are prepared using as little as 10 ng input DNA and the supplied NEBNext Ultra II reagents and the optimized EM-seq Adaptor. TET2 then oxidizes 5-mC and 5-hmC, providing protection from deamination by APOBEC in the next step. In contrast, unmodified cytosines are deaminated to uracils. Libraries are then amplified using a NEBNext master mix formulation of Q5U® (a modified version of Q5® High-Fidelity DNA Polymerase), and sequenced using Illumina instrumentation.
The consistently high conversion performance and minimized DNA damage with the EM-seq protocol, in combination with highly efficient Ultra II library prep, result in superior detection of CpGs with fewer sequencing reads.
NEBNext UltraShear (NEB #M7634) has been optimized for enzymatic fragmentation of DNA compatible with EM-seq workflows, and protocols are available in the NEBNext UltraShear product manual.
