DNA sequencing

DNA sequencing
Procedures for determining the nucleotide sequence of a DNA fragment. Two common methods available:
1. The Maxam Gilbert technique, which uses chemicals to cleave DNA into fragments at specific bases; or, most commonly,
2. the Sanger technique (also called the di-deoxy or chain-terminating method) which uses DNA polymerase to make new DNA chains, in the presence of di-deoxynucleotides (chain terminators) to stop the chain randomly as it grows. In both cases, the DNA fragments are separated according to length by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, enabling the sequence to be read directly from the gel. The procedure has become increasingly automated and large-scale in recent years.
