Background
NGS library preparation enzymes are crucial for the acquisition and amplification of genetic material from samples to support efficient sequencing in Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) applications. These specialized enzymes convert fragmented DNA and RNA samples into a library of DNA molecules. Bioengineered NGS library preparation enzymes hold groundbreaking potential within the realms of genomics, personalized medicine, and disease research. Playing a pivotal role in the construction of sequence libraries, these enzymes ensure that the sequences of interest are adequately represented within the sample.

Preparation encompasses several stages such as end-repair, adapter ligation, and amplification. Each step involves different enzymes. The DNA molecules undergo fragmentation and repair by enzymes, creating blunt ends. This repair mechanism utilizes T4 DNA polymerase, T4 PNK, and Klenow fragment. Subsequent adapter ligation is facilitated by DNA Ligase, while DNA polymerases perform the critical function of amplifying the constructed library.
