The present disclosure provides, among other things, a way to amplify and sequence target sequences in a low-input sample. In some embodiments, the method comprises ligating a double-stranded adaptor onto a population of fragments to produce tagged fragments, and linearly amplifying the tagged fragments.

The present invention provides methods and compositions for carrying out nucleic acid sequencing, particularly paired-end sequencing. The methods use concatemeric sequencing templates that can be produced by rolling circle amplification of asymmetric circular nucleic acids having a central double-stranded region comprising a target nucleic acid sequence that is connected at each end to form a circular construct.

The present disclosure encompasses methods of error corrected sequencing (ECS) that enable detection of very rare mutations well below the error rate of convention next generation sequencing (NGS). Further, the methods disclosed herein enable multiplex targeting of genomic DNA.

Methods of coupling adaptors to a target nucleic acid include coupling a first adaptor to a first end of the target nucleic acid to form a coupled first adaptor. A portion of a second adaptor is hybridized to a portion of the coupled first adaptor to form a hybridized second adaptor having a single-stranded 3′-end. The hybridized second adaptor is coupled to a second end of the target nucleic acid to form an adaptor-flanked product having at least a part of the first adaptor coupled to the first end of the target nucleic acid and at least a part of the second adaptor coupled to the second end of the target nucleic acid. These methods can minimize the formation of adaptor-dimers that may be problematic in subsequent complementary nucleic acid strand synthesis, amplification, and sequencing.
