To everyone who has been following the discussion surrounding BigDye version 3
problems, I just received the following from AppliedBiosystems. Since this
discussion has been split between two newsgroups, let me give a quick summary of
the problem first. I am running BigDye version 3 on a 377 using 48cm 5%
LongRanger gels with TTE (Tris/TAPS/EDTA). What I have been experiencing is an
offset/shift of G's in relation to the other bases (particularly A's) creating
problems with the base calling. So anyway, here is the news:
> We hope that by next week there is a mobility file posted on our website
> that can handle these long read gels. Please try with this one when it is
> released. You find it on our website:
> www.appliedbiosystems.com > services & support > softwaredownloads >
> ABI Prism 377 > module files
> I presume it will have "LR" in its naming.
