  3. PCR to close gaps Scaffold Design primers at these locations • Run PCR for each pair of primers • Primers must be in non-repeat sequences • Primers must be as close as possible to each gap • PCR works best if primers are less than 2kb apart

  4. What about physical gaps? How to order and orient all scaffolds?

  5. Traditional strategy: combinatorial PCR • Design primers for each end of each scaffold • With N/2 scaffolds and N “ends”, run a separate PCR reaction for every pair of ends • (N choose 2) reactions = N(N-1)/2 • Example: 24 physical gaps, 48 ends, PCR experiments will be:

  7. Multiplexing more primers • Up to 12 primers per tube • If any two primers surround the same gap, they produce a product • If more than 2 pairs react, we get multiple products • Let N = number of primers = 48 • K = max primers/tube = 12

  8. POMP:pipette optimized multiplex PCR • minimize number of laboratory reactions • with N=48, number of combinatorial PCRs is 1128 • number of pipettings = 2256 • POMP: 28 reactions, 104 pipettings

  9. POMP • Create pools of size K/2 = 6 • Each of N=48 primers put into 1 pool • So we create N/(K/2) = 8 pools, P1...P8 • Now create multiplex PCR reactions with all pairs of pools • (8 choose 2) = 28 reactions needed

  10. POMP • Guarantees that all primers are tested against all others • Each reaction tests (12 choose 2) = 66 pairs • Protocol tests 66*28 = 1848 pairs • Only 1128 distinct pairs, so POMP has some redundancy - some pairs appear in more than one reaction

  12. Testing all Pools P1

  13. How many pipette operations? • 48 pipettings to create the pools (one for each primer) • 2 pipettings to create each multiplex reaction mix • Total: 48 + 2(28) = 104

  14. Results: Streptococcus pneumoniae • N=48 primers, N/2 = 24 scaffolds, 24 gaps • 19 products observed in the first experiment • Q: how many gaps closed?

  15. Interpreting results • Case 1: product appears with Pi and Pj, but not in any other lane containing Pi • see P2P6 or P7P8 on previous slide • purify and sequence product directly • Case 2: product appears in Pi and Pj and also in other lanes containing Pi • thus two primers within Pi reacted • see pool P5 on previous slide

  16. A: Deconvoluting pool P5: eliminate each of the six primers from the pool and run 6 standard PCRs Answer: p25 and p29

  17. B: Pools P2 and P3 gave two products • Could run 12 more PCRs: eliminate each of 12 primers and re-run multiplex PCR • However, 5 of the 12 were eliminated by other results • For example, primer p10 was eliminated by results from P1-P2 • Answers: • p11 in Pool 2 pairs with p13 in Pool 3 • p16 in Pool 3 pairs with p8 in Pool 2

  18. POMP requirements • (Ideally) If no restriction on K, choose K based on N (where N = 2 x (#gaps)) • Make pools of size K/2 Reactions: Pipettings:

  19. POMP summary for S. pneumoniae • Out of 48 gaps, 42 were closed • Strategy employs slightly under N/2 reactions, thus expected number of products per tube is ~1 • This was borne out in experiments • This became a standard lab technique at TIGR
