No, this kit takes as input one of the following:
The xGen Broad-Range RNA Library Prep Kit begins with an RNA fragmentation and reverse transcription step. Therefore, if mRNA enrichment or ribodepletion is required, see the xGen Broad-Range RNA Library Prep Kit Protocol (Appendix A) for kits that have been tested for compatibility with this protocol.
Also, refer to the protocol for details on matching the output of these upstream modules with the initial steps in the xGen Broad-Range RNA Library Kit instructions.
