Abstract

See full text

Providing herein, among other things, is a method for preparing a nucleic acid for sequencing. In some embodiments, the method comprises a) amplifying a nucleic acid template using a dNTP mix that contains 5-methyl dCTP, thereby producing product nucleic acid molecules that contains methylcytosines; b) digesting the product nucleic acid molecules with a methylation-dependent restriction endonuclease, thereby cleaving the product nucleic acid molecules at sites that are adjacent to at least some of the methylcytosine and producing fragments of the product nucleic acid molecules; and c) ligating double-stranded adaptors onto the ends of the fragments to produce adaptor-ligated products.
