Q

Pacific Biosciences (PacBio) Sequencing

A

uses SMRT (single molecule real-time) sequencing
- thousands of zero-mode waveguides (ZMWs) in a SMRT cell
- the DNA template-DNA pol complex is immobilized at the bottom
- fluorophore-labeled nucleotide is introduced
- light emission is detected

17
Q

nanopore method

A
  • the template-DNA enzyme attaches to a nanopore
  • the nanopore read base by base by measuring the electrical perturbations
18
Q

Application of genome sequencing (4)

A
  • identify the genes
  • understand the evolution
  • understand the function
  • develop products
19
Q

genome sequencing strategies

A
  1. ordered BAC clone sequencing
  2. shotgun sequencing
  3. targeted sequencing of gene-rich regions
20
Q

ordered BAC clone sequencing

A
  • the BAC clones are aligned against a genetic map to construct the physical map
  • the BAC clones are sequenced individually and aligned to identify the minimum tiling path
  • each BAC clone in the minimum tiling path is sequenced by shotgun method and aligned
  • genomic sequence
21
Q

shotgun sequencing

A
  • the genomic DNA is divided into many fragment DNA molecules using the shotgun method
  • the fragment DNA molecules are incorporated into universal cloning vectors to form the small insert libraries
  • the insert libraries are sequenced and aligned to generate the genomic sequence
