Product Information
Description
View or download extensive performance data below and in our Data Supplement
This new kit meets the need for substantially faster, more streamlined RNA library prep workflows that deliver high-quality directional libraries from a variety of sample types in a single day from total RNA.
The kit allows the use of a single protocol for all RNA inputs (25 -250 ng total RNA) and incorporates master mixed reagents, reduced incubation times and fewer cleanup steps, reducing total time and consumables used.
- 3-hour library prep enables single day total RNA to library, in conjunction with mRNA enrichment or rRNA depletion kits
- Fewer cleanups and pipetting steps reduce hands-on time
- A robust single protocol for all input amounts increases ease of use
- Flexibility is enabled with simple guidelines for customized protocols, if desired
- Automation-friendly, enabling scalability

B. Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) was depleted from UHRR, and libraries were prepared using the UltraExpress RNA Library Prep Kit (preceded by the NEBNext rRNA Depletion Kit (Human/Mouse/Rat – NEB #E7400), Kapa HyperPrep Kit with RiboErase, or Illumina Stranded Total RNA Library Prep Kit with Ribo-Zero® Plus. The NEBNext UltraExpress RNA Library Prep Kit was used with a single adaptor dilution (50X) and 11 PCR cycles for all inputs, or with customized adaptor dilutions (20X for 76–250 ng, 100X for 25–75 ng) and PCR cycle numbers (listed in figure).
The total RNA input amount and number of PCR cycles are indicated. Library yields calculated from an average of three replicates are shown with error bars indicating the standard deviation between replicates.

B. Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) was depleted from UHRR, and libraries were prepared using the UltraExpress RNA Library Prep Kit (preceded by the NEBNext rRNA Depletion Kit (Human/Mouse/Rat – NEB #E7400), KAPA HyperPrep Kit with RiboErase, or Illumina Stranded Total RNA Library Prep Kit with Ribo-Zero® Plus. The NEBNext UltraExpress RNA Library Prep Kit was used with a single adaptor dilution (50X) and 12 PCR cycles for all inputs, or with customized adaptor dilutions and PCR cycles (20X adaptor dilution with 9 PCR cycles for 250 ng input, 100X adaptor dilution with 11 PCR cycles (75 ng) and 13 PCR cycles (25 ng)).
Libraries were sequenced on an Illumina NextSeq® 500 (2 x 75 bases). 10 million reads were sampled and mapped to the hg38 reference genome using RNA STAR v2.7.8a and 5´ to 3´ Transcript coverage was calculated from the top 1,000 transcripts using the CollectRnaSeqMetrics (Picard) tool v2.18.2.2.

Libraries were sequenced on an Illumina NextSeq® 500 (2 x 75 bases). 10 million reads were sampled and average transcript abundance was assessed for transcripts detected with ≤ 10 reads and ≤ 500 reads, respectively. Error bars indicate standard deviation for 3 replicates. Salmon v1.5.1 was used for mapping and quantification of all gencode v38 transcripts and ERCCs.

B. Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) was depleted from UHRR using the NEBNext rRNA Depletion Kit v2 (Human/Mouse/Rat – NEB #E7400) and libraries. The NEBNext UltraExpress RNA Library Prep Kit was used with a single adaptor dilution (50X) and 11 PCR cycles for all inputs, or with customized adaptor dilutions and PCR cycle numbers (20X adaptor dilution with 9 PCR cycles for 250 ng input, 100X adaptor dilution with 11 PCR cycles (75 ng) and 13 PCR cycles (25 ng)).
Libraries were sequenced on an Illumina NextSeq® 500 (2 x 75 bases). The data was sampled from 10 million reads and libraries were correlated for transcript expression levels across inputs using Salmon v1.5.1 quantification of all gencode v38 transcripts and ERCCs. Each data point represents a transcript, with the log10 abundance in Number of Reads with 250 ng total RNA input on the y-axis compared to a replicate at 250 ng followed by 75 and 25 ng on the x-axis.
