Data Source - Sequencing Illumina HiSeq 4000 Sequencing System

The Illumina HiSeq 4000 System Sequencer is a high-throughput DNA sequencer machine developed and manufactured by Illumina, and is designed for high throughput, production-scale sequencing laboratories. Built off the HiSeq 2500 System and harnessing the patterned flow cell technology originally developed for the HiSeq X™ Ten System, the Illumina HiSeq 4000 platform provides advanced speed and performance offering project design a significant capacity gain for a wide variety of sequencing investigations. Services used for this sequencing platform were contracted through GeneWiz (NGS platform resources).

HiSeq 4000 pre-processed raw data is packaged in a .fastq format and can be accessed at project dataset download DOI containing additional processed data products, metadata, and software related to a sequence analysis using deoxyribonucleic acid DNA sequencing products.
