Here is a helpful document from Illumina discussing the compatibility between various library primers and various sequencing platforms and kits.

If you'd like a different description, this one from the Tufts core facility is quite good.

NOTE THAT THE SHADED PORTIONS SHOULD NOT BE CHANGED if you are designing your own primers!!  The only flexibility one has is in the "template" section and in the two "index read" sections.  Every other nucleotide shown matters as-is.

    IndexRead2:

    NONE - as in do NOT put an index here.  If you want to add an index here, use one of the "Dual-index" designs below.

    Read1 primer site:

    Either the small RNA sequencing primer site: (NEB: TCTACACGTTCAGAGTTCTACAGTCCGACGATCA or Other[Illumina lists this but it is UNPROVEN: CAGGTTCAGAGTTCTACAGTCCGACGATCA]) OR the standard TruSeq Read 1 primer site: TCTACACTCTTTCCCTACACGACGCTCTTCCGATCT. Which to choose? The TruSeq Read 1 primer site is complementary to the Read 2 primer site, so if you are designing amplicons do NOT use the TruSeq Read 1 primer site, use the small RNA sequencing primer site.

  4. The insert to be sequenced

    Read2 primer site:

    Then the Index read primer site: AGATCGGAAGAGCACACGTCTGAACTCCAGTCAC (note NOTE: the initial A is from the dA tailing of the insert and is not included in the index primer or adaptor sequences; note also the reverse-complement of this is the Read 2 sequencing primer, but the Read 2 sequencing primer includes the T corresponding to the dA insert tail so sequencing starts with the insert)

    IndexRead1:

    The index sequence (usually 6 bp) - see many examples below in the Barcodes section. Within a lane, image analysis works best with as much base diversity as possible.

    IndexRead2:

    Optional. Example: TAGATCGC. This is called "IndexRead2" because it is read after index read 1. The GSAF does not normally sequence this barcode - please request if you need it read. We have little guidance to offer on designs other than to re-use the same sequences as in the Index Read 1 site - base diversity is your friend.

    Read1 primer site:

    The standard TruSeq Read 1 primer site: ACACTCTTTCCCTACACGACGCTCTTCCGATCT. We are not sure at this point whether the small RNA primer site is compatible with dual-indexes or not.

  4. The remaining template elements are identical to the Single-index adaptor design above.
  5. Note that an artifact of this design is that a SINGLE index (I7 index) TS library will read the sequence "TCTTTC..." as the I5 index if it is run in dual-index mode.

Barcodes (also known as Indexes)

NOTE: Illumina barcodes (indexes) have varied significantly over time NOT ONLY in their sequence but also in WHERE they are placed in the sequencing construct.

...

The GSAF uses the following names for the following barcodes. Note that these sequences are shown 5'-3' when the P5 sequence is on the left. In other words, here is the first barcode shown in the context of the full 3'-end adaptor construct:

Cautions, common mistakes, and lessons learned from failure

  1. Assembling the P7 side adaptor or primer wrong - the key thing to note is that the "cannonical designs" are shown 5' to 3' across the entire finished sequencing construct.  So if you're designing a reverse primer for the P7 side you have to use the reverse complement of ALL 3 DESIGN ELEMENTS (flow cell binding site, barcode, and sequencing primer site) and make sure they're in the right order.
  2. Incorrect P5 dual-index design - the "ACAC" motif in the single index design MUST be repeated on both sides of an index within P5 - see the "dual index" designs specifically.
  3. Reverse complement barcode sequences in either P5 or P7 side indexes, especially from amplicons - the fact that the Illumina sequencers read i5 differently is a pain - pay attention to that when submitting barcode sequences that will wind up in a sample sheet.  And remember that the i7 index is read "forward, top strand" of the canonical design, which is reverse complement of the sequence that appears in a reverse primer used when creating a library.
