1. A method for generating a library of tagged nucleic acid fragments from a double-stranded, target nucleic acid, comprising incubating the target nucleic acid with a transposome complex, wherein the transposome complex comprises:
a. a transposase,
b. a first transposon comprising:
i. a 3′ portion comprising a first transposon end sequence; and
ii. a first adaptor sequence at the 5′ end of the first transposon end sequence;
c. a second transposon comprising a second transposon end sequence complementary to at least a portion of the first transposon end sequence; and
d. a non-nucleic acid linker having a first end attached to the 3′ end of the second transposon and a second end attached to an affinity element,
under conditions sufficient to fragment the target nucleic acid into a plurality of target fragments, and to join the 3′ end of the first transposon to the 5′ ends of the target fragments to produce a plurality of 5′ tagged target fragments.
