The Genomics Laboratory does not perform services of a personal nature, but only those that are limited to research and development projects.
ITER’s Genomics Service has several second-generation (MiSeq, NextSeq 550 and NovaSeq 6000) and third-generation (MinION Mk1B/Mk1C and GridION x5) mass sequencing platforms that allow the sequencing of nucleic acids by short and long reads, respectively. In addition, during 2024, work is underway to acquire a high-throughput proteomics platform based on mass sequencing (Figure 1). All these services are provided for research (Research Use Only).

High-throughput genomics and proteomics platforms connected to ITER’s supercomputing infrastructure.
These high-performance platforms, genomics and proteomics, are interconnected with ITER’s supercomputing infrastructure, teideHPC, which facilitates their time-bound storage and allows bioinformatics computational tasks to be carried out. To learn more about these infrastructures, click here (https://teidehpc.iter.es/). The HPC infrastructure services can also be accessed independently (https://teidehpc.iter.es/servicios/).
If you have already extracted nucleic acids (Figure 2), under the appropriate conditions, our team, through the so-called Genomics Service, has the technology for analysis from sample to interpreted result, offering accurate results at competitive prices adapted to the scale of your project. We also have the capacity to support large-scale projects.

All these services are supervised in the Genomics Laboratory by a professional team with the appropriate scientific and technical qualifications. In addition, we are currently working on the implementation of the appropriate measures to apply for ENAC ISO 17025 accreditation for both whole genome and whole exome sequencing during the year 2025.
Services in our facilities
