Welcome to the new website for sequencing with the CAT @ UCSF!

You will find pages to the left containing information on how to submit a library, the recharge rates, the queue of libraries waiting to be sequenced, on the NovaSeqX, NovaSeq 6000, and PacBio Revio. 

We offer individual lane submissions for the following: NovaSeqX: SE100, PE50/10xATAC, 10xRNA/Visium, PE150/10xATAC. 

On the NovaSeq, we offer individual lane submissions for the S4 flow cell: PE150, PE100, 10x scRNA-seq, 10x scATAC-seq. For the SP flow cell:PE PE150 and 10x scATAC-seq. 

For other parameters or custom primers, you need to occupy an entire flow cell and the NovaSeq 6000 SP/S1/S2 flow cells are your best options. 

For PacBio libraries, the minimum unit is a single Revio flow cell.

When submitting manuscripts, please acknowledge the CAT by including the text: “Sequencing was performed at the UCSF CAT, supported by UCSF PBBR, RRP IMIA, and NIH 1S10OD028511-01 grants.” 

The CAT has two list serves, one for general information and another for sequencing information. 

To subscribe to the general info list, send and e-mail to listserv@listsrv.ucsf.edu with “subscribe cat_info FIRSTNAME LASTNAME” in the body without quotes to get on the general CAT list serve.

To subscribe to our sequencing list, send an e-mail to listserv@listsrv.ucsf.edu. Leave the subject blank and include "subscribe cat-seq FIRSTNAME LASTNAME" without the quotes in the e-mail.
