Thus far, most DNA sequencing has been performed using the chain termination method developed by Frederick Sanger. This technique uses sequence-specific termination of a DNA synthesis reaction using modified nucleotide substrates. However, new sequencing technologies such as Pyrosequencing are gaining an increasing share of the sequencing market. More genome data is being produced by pyrosequencing than Sanger DNA sequencing these days. Pyrosequencing has enabled rapid genome sequencing.

Determining the sequence is therefore useful in 'pure' research into why and how organisms live, as well as in applied subjects. Because of the key nature of DNA to living things, knowledge of DNA sequence may come in useful in practically any biological research. For example, in medicine it can be used to identify, diagnose and potentially develop treatments for genetic diseases. Similarly, research into pathogens may lead to treatments for contagious diseases. Biotechnology is a burgeoning discipline, with the potential for many useful products and services.</font></p>

The oligonucleotide primer is extended using nucleotide order of a given DNA polymerasefragment. Thus far, an enzyme that replicates most DNA. Included with sequencing has been performed using the primer and DNA polymerase are the four deoxynucleotide bases (DNA building blocks), along with a low concentration of a chain terminating nucleotide (most commonly a <strong>ditermination method developed by Frederick Sanger. This technique uses sequence-</strong>deoxynucleotide). Limited incorporation specific termination of the chain terminating nucleotide by the DNA polymerase results in a series of related DNA fragments that are terminated only at positions where that particular synthesis reaction using modified nucleotide is usedsubstrates. The fragments However, new sequencing technologies such as Pyrosequencing are then size-separated by electrophoresis in a slab polyacrylamide gel, or more commonly now, in a narrow glass tube (capillary) filled with a viscous polymer.</font></p><div class="thumb tright"><div style="width: 182px" class="thumbinner"><img class="thumbimage" border="0" alt="View gaining an increasing share of the start of an example dye-terminator read (click to expand)" width="180" height="42" src="http://uploadsequencing market.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/44/Sanger_sequencing_read_display.gif/180px-Sanger_sequencing_read_display.gif" /><div class="thumbcaption"><div style="float: right" class="magnify"><img alt="" width="15" height="11" src="http://en.wikipedia.org/skins-1.5/common/images/magnify-clip.png" /></div>View of the start of an example dye-terminator read (click to expand)</div></div></div><p><font size="3">An alternative to the labelling of the primer More genome data is to label the terminators instead, commonly called 'dye terminator being produced by pyrosequencing than Sanger DNA sequencing'these days. The major advantage of this approach is the complete Pyrosequencing has enabled rapid genome sequencing set . Bacterial genome can be performed sequenced in a single reaction, rather than the four needed run with the labeled-primer approach. This is accomplished by labelling each of the dideoxynucleotide chain-terminators several X coverage with a separate fluorescent dye, which fluoresces at a different wavelengththis technique. This method is easier and quicker than the dye primer approach, but may produce more uneven data peaks (different heights), due technique was also used to a template dependent difference in sequence the incorporation genome of the large dye chain-terminators. This problem has been significantly reduced with the introduction of new enzymes and dyes that minimize incorporation variabilityJames Watson recently.</fontspan></p><p><font size="3">This method is now used for the vast majority of sequencing reactions as it is both simpler and cheaper. The major reason for this is that the primers do not have to be separately labelled (which can be a significant expense for a single-use custom primer), although this is less of a concern with frequently used 'universal' primers.</font></p>

<h3><span class="mw-headline">Pyrosequencing</span></h3><p><font size="3">Pyrosequencing, which was originally developed by Mostafa Ronaghi, has been commercialized by Biotage (for low throughput sequencing) and 454 Life Sciences (for high-throughput sequencing). The latter platform sequences roughly 100 megabases in a 7-hour run with a single machine. In the array-based method (commercialized by 454 Life Sciences), single-stranded DNA is annealed to beads and amplified via emPCR. These DNA-bound beads are then placed into wells on a fiber-optic chip along with enzymes which produce light in the presence of ATP. When free nucleotides are washed over this chip, light is produced as ATP is generated when nucleotides join with their complementary base pairs. Addition of one (or more) nucleotide(s) results in a reaction that generates a light signal that is recorded by the CCD camera in the instrument. The signal strength is proportional to the number of nucleotides, for example, homopolymer stretches, incorporated in a single nucleotide flow.

DNA molecules are first attached to primers on a slide and amplified so that local clonal colonies are formed (bridge amplification). Four types of ddNTPs are added, and non-incorporated nucleotides are washed away. Unlike pyrosequencing, the DNA can only be extended one nucleotide at a time. A camera takes images of the fluorescently labeled nucleotides then the dye along with the terminal 3' blocker is chemically removed from the DNA, allowing a next cycle. The final product of the SBS is many [[DNA reads]].</font>&nbsp;</p>
