Abstract
Aspects of the invention relate to methods and compositions for preparing and analyzing a single-stranded sequencing library from a double-stranded DNA (e.g., double-stranded cfDNA) sample. In some embodiments, the sample includes double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) molecules, and damaged dsDNA (e.g., nicked dsDNA) molecules. In some embodiments, the sample includes single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) molecules. The subject methods facilitate the collection of information, including strand-pairing and connectivity information, from dsDNA, ssDNA and damaged DNA (e.g., nicked DNA) molecules in a sample, thereby providing enhanced diagnostic information as compared to sequencing libraries that are prepared using conventional methods.
