The xGen™ RNA Library Prep Kit includes a stubby adapter in the workflow so the stocked UDI-UMI adapters are not compatible with those kits.
For customers using homebrew, or other commercial RNA-seq workflows that utilize TA-ligation, these UDI-UMI adapters are compatible. However, it is important to note that stranded RNA-seq libraries constructed using xGen UDI-UMI Adapters have the insert strandedness flipped (i.e., to the opposite strand) when compared to standard Illumina TruSeq™ adapters. As such, this strand flip must be handled during data analysis.
