WHAT IS SEQUENCING?
•DNA sequencing process utilizes biochemical methods in order
to determine the correct order of nucleotide bases in a DNA
macromolecule using sequencing machines.
•Sequencing enabledthe completion of notable projects, such
as:
§The Human Genome Project
§The 1000 Genomes Project.
FIRST GENERATION SEQUENCING (FGS)
§Sanger chain termination
sequencing
§Maxam-Gilbert Chemical
sequencing

Fredrick Sanger
(1977, University of Cambridge)
Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1980
The sole method for DNA sequencing for 3 decades
FIRST GENERATION SEQUENCING
Sanger Chain Termination SequencingMaxam-Gilbert Chemical Sequencing
AllanMaxam and
Walter Gilbert
(1976–1977, Harvard University)
•lesser technical
complexity
•lesser amount of
toxic chemicals used
•first automated
sequencing
technique
•Also know as: Chain termination sequencing or dideoxy method .
•Sequencing by synthesis method
•Reaction component:
§DNA template
§DNA primers
§DNA polymerase
§Four normal DNA nucleotides
§Four fluorescently labeled modified nucleotides
(ddATP, ddCTP, ddGTPand ddTTP).

SECOND GENERATION SEQUENCING (SGS)
§454 PYROSEQUENCING
§ILLUMINA’S SEQUENCING
§SOLiDsequencer
§Ion Torrent Personal Genome
Machine (PGM)

•Three major SGS methods include:
•The Roche, 454 pyrosequencing system.
•The Illumina/SolexaGenome Analyzer.
•The Applied Biosystems, SOLiDTMSystem.
●SGS workflows involve:
1.Obtaining the nucleic acid of interest
2.Preparing a sequencing library, which involve enrichment of target sequences
3.Carrying out the sequencing on the chosen platform.
SECOND GENERATION SEQUENCING (SGS)

§Sequencing by synthesis method
§Amplification is carried by bridge PCR.
§Based on reversible dye terminators
§Reaction component:
§DNA template
§Adapters
§DNA polymerase
§dNTP
§Flow cell
§DNA primer
§Four fluorescently labeled 3’blocked reversible terminators

THIRD GENERATION SEQUENCING (TGS)
§Nanopore sequencing
§Pacific single molecule real time
(SMRT) DNA sequencing
04
§There are three important improvements in TGS platforms:
1.Increase in read length from tens of bases to tens of thousands of bases per
read.
2.Reduction of sequencing timefrom days to hours (or to minutes for real-time
applications).
3.Reduction or elimination of sequencing biasesintroduced by PCR amplification.
●The two most promising TGS technologies are:
§Nanopore DNA sequencing
§Oxford Nanopore
§Pacific single molecule real time (SMRT) DNA sequencing.
THIRD GENERATION SEQUENCING

●Released the MinIONdevice in 2014 which is small size device.
●Low equipment cost.
●Sequencing of individual DNA molecules with long read lengths (up to 50,000 bp).
●Read accuracy ranging from 65%-88%.
●No sequencing-by-synthesis.
