Q

Next generation sequencing technologies - what are the common principles?

A

All rely on methods that sequence DNA directly – no starting molecular cloning or PCR production of individual DNAs

Genomic DNA is reduced to small random DNA fragments representing all the sequences of the starting DNA (DNA fragment library) and these are simultaneously sequenced in a single procedure

Q

How does the average NGS technology work?

A

DNA reduced to small random fragments by sonification.

DNA fragment library is then modified by adapter ligations and PCR

DNA fragments then immobilise to a solid support so that the locations of individual DNA molecules are separated

Q

What is step 1 of an illumina NGS - English oligonucleotide?

A

Short single strand oligonucleotides of two defined sequence (P5 andP7) are chemically bonded to the glass slides (tiles) or nanowells in a flow cell to form a dense lawn

22
Q

What way are ogkionucleotides bonded in illumina NGS?

A

Short single strand oligonucleotides are chemically bonded via their 5’ends with 3’ hydroxyl ends free and pointing up from the surface

23
Q

Illumina NGS method - how to adapters bind to the oglionucleotides and what does this do?

A

Adapters with the same sequence as the bonded oligonucleotides areligated to each end of the sonicated DNA from the genome of interest

24
Q

Illumina NGS method - how are adapters ligated?

A

The double-stranded adapters are ligated on in a way that results in allsonicated DNAs having a different adapter sequence on each end

25
Q

Illumina NGS method - what happens after ligation?

A

DNA population is denatured and added to the glass slide, the DNA attaches via complementary base pairing to the bonded oligonucleotide that will act as primers for DNA polymerisation

26
Q

Illumina NGS method - what happens to the density of the attached dna?

A

Is adjusted so that single DNA molecules are on average attached at well separated positions from one another

27
Q

Illumina NGS method - after the density of dna has been set what happens to the dna and dNTPs?

A

flushed through the flow cell and eachsingle DNA molecule is copied in situ by DNA polymerisation initiated atthe 3’ end of the chemically bonded oligonucleotide primers P5 and P7

28
Q

Illumina NGS Method - what happens to the original DNA

A

DNA molecule is washed away after denaturation to leave achemically bonded single copy of itsel

29
Q

Illumina NGS method - what happens to the copy of the DNA after it has been denatured?

A

renaturation conditions anneals to an adjacent chemically bonded oligonucleotide P5 primer to initiate another round ofDNA synthesis by DNA polymerase - called ‘bridge amplification

30
Q

Are cycles in beige amplifications repeated many times?

A

Yes

31
Q

In illumina NGS when sequencing what happens to one of the strands?

A

It needs to be removed

32
Q

Illumina NGS methods - how is the strand removed?

A

P5 oligonucleotide is chemically cleaved and the black strand removedby denaturation

33
Q

What does each cluster now contain?

A

homogeneous population of strands forsequencing using a primer

34
Q

Are clinal clusters at high density?

A

Yes

35
Q

What does synthesis of sequences in Illumina use?

A

dNTPs with a different fluorescent group for dATP, dCTP, dGTP, dTTP, and areversible 3’ chain terminator block

36
Q

What can be annoyed to adapter sequences?

A

Universal primer

37
Q

What happens after universal primer?

A

DNA polymerase is added and sequencing is started on all the singlestrand templates in the cluster using the reversible dNTP terminators

38
Q

What does imagining record?

A

records the laser activated fluorescence colour at each clusterposition simultaneously – billions of positions

A single fluorescence output is obtained for each cluster and recorded

39
Q

What happens after imaging?

A

dye is chemically cleaved away and the 3’end is chemically unblocked by washing the flow cell with chemicalreagents

40
Q

What is the output of the sequences number of reads referred to?

A

The depth

41
Q

What does partly overlapping sequences result from?

A

from the multiple templates being sequenced across the flow cell

42
Q

What are the applications of this technology?

A

Whole genome resequencing, gene expression, chIP sequencing, microRNA delivery, target resequencing.

43
Q

How do you determine the structure of chromatin?

A

DNase I hypersensitivity mapping or Chromatin immunoprecipitation

44
Q

DNase I hypersensitivity mapping - why is this used?

A

To map open regions of chromatin structure which gives you an idea about promotes ect.

45
Q

How is DNase I hypersensitivity mapping done?

A

Restriction enzyme digestion and southern blotting

46
Q

Why is chIP used?

A

detecting sequences associated with specific chromatin modifications (e.g.histonemodifications) orbinding of specific transcription factors

47
Q

How is chIP done?

A

ImmunprecipitatedDNA is detected byregion-specific PCRprimers

48
Q

What can NGS do for chromatin?

A

genome-wide chromatin sampling can be done by NGS sequencing

49
Q

How can you understand the content of DNA extraction better?

A

the content of the DNA extracted (‘millions’ of molecules)a short read or pair of reads of sequence is generated from each originalmolecule obtained from the chromatin sampling

50
Q

How do informatics methods give peaks and analyse the distribution?

A

Informatics methods ‘count’ the number of reads at each location to give peaks and analyse the distribution of peaks throughout the genome

51
Q

What can DNase I hypersensitive sites help with?

A

DNA footprinting

52
Q

Third generation sequencing - what does the nanopore minION do?

A

Nanopore sequencing of single molecules
