Sanger Sequencing And Illumina Sequencing
Comparison of Sanger Sequencing and Illumina Sequencing Technique
In similarities, Illumina or NGS (Next Generation Sequencing) is principle based similar to Sanger Sequencing. Re-synthesizing the bases of DNA small fragment from a DNA template strand that is identified from the emitted signal. But unlike Sanger Sequencing, Illumina NGS sequencing further the process in a huge parallel fashion across millions of action instead of being limited single of a few DNA fragment like Sanger Sequencing. Sanger Sequencing gives us a basic information which is the sequence of nucleotides that we can compare between homologous genes across the species out of it and identify a mutation. While for Illumina NGS sequencing, it is all about genome sequencing

    In PBS, you learned about the molecular biology techniques that allow scientists to explore our DNA. PCR, Polymerase Chain Reaction, is the copy machine; the revolutionary process that allows scientists to replicate even the tiniest speck of DNA. Restriction endonucleases (enzymes) are the molecular scissors that can cut DNA in specific locations. Your specific code determines the number of times this set of scissors will snip and the number and size of DNA pieces that will be left behind. These pieces can then be separated and compared using the process of gel electrophoresis. As these fragments move, their varying lengths propel them through the gel at different speeds. Scientists can use these RFLPs, Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphisms, a set of DNA puzzle pieces unique to only you, to create a pattern called a DNA fingerprint. Similar to the unique…

    He was working with a team on the chemical structure of proteins. One of Sanger’s first projects was studying the amino acid composition of insulin. Sanger’s objective to this research was to determine the exact structure of insulin. He struggled with funding for his research, since most scientists believed that amino acids in proteins were randomly arranged. His funding problem was solved in 1944, when he was awarded a Beit Memorial Fellowship for Medical Research. Only six years later, he became a member of the Medical Research Council in reward for his work. Sanger is one of the few scientists to be awarded the Nobel Prize for chemistry twice. The first time was for his methods developed for sequencing amino acids. After eight years of mistakes, Sanger finally determined that insulin is made up fifty one amino acids. Also, that proteins have a defined sequence. After this discovery, he turned to sequencing the building blocks in DNA. Sanger explored over fifteen methods for reading the DNA linear code. Sanger finally come up with a method that allowed long strands of DNA to be rapidly sequenced. As many as five hundred bases could be read at one time. This method is what earned him his second Nobel Prize in 1980. After this, Sanger was also awarded a knighthood, but he turned it down because he did not want to be called ‘Sir’. Only five years…

    Since competition drives forward the technology used by genetic counselors each scientist believes their own method is the best. Of course each method comes with their own respective advantages and disadvantages. The most common type of genetic sequencing used by counselors is called next generation sequencing (NGS). When using NGS, you are provided with the benefit of much faster and cheaper method of sequencing multiple strands of DNA. Although the benefits of NGS are helpful in some cases, it does come with disadvantages that when compared to its competitor, Sanger method, could be an issue. These disadvantages include the limited number of base pairs that can be sequenced on a given DNA strand and the fact it gives you far more knowledge…
