dna sequencing methods
TRANSCRIPT
Dna sequencing
What is DNA sequencing ? • Determining order of nucleotides
• DNA first discovered by Friedrich Miescher in 1869
• Oswald Avery, Colin Macleod and Maclyn McCarty demonstrated that purified DNA could change one strain of bacteria into another
• In 1953 James Watson and Francis Crick put forward double helix model of DNA
• Foundation of sequencing protein was first laid by Sanger
HISTORY
• The first method for determining DNA sequence involved a location specific primer extension strategy, established by Ray Wu in 1970
• DNA polymerase catalysis and specific nucleotide labelling used
• Between 1970 and 1973 R. Padmahabhan and colleagues that this method can be used to identify any DNA sequence
• Sanger adopted primer extension strategy to develop rapid DNA sequences
• Later Maxam and Gilbert also developed sequencing method
• Why is DNA sequencing important ?
Molecular medicines Bioarchaeology, Anthropology,
Evolution and Human migration

MAXAM GILBERT METHOD
• Allan Maxim and Walter Gilbert developed a method for sequencing single stranded dna
• Purines dimethyl sulphate • Pyrimidines hydrazine • Breaking of glyosidic bonds between
ribose sugar and base

• Discovered by Scientist Sanger • Also know as dideoxy method or
chain termination method • 2 main things to be done :1. Denature the DNA 2. Labelling
SANGER SEQUENCING
DIDEOXYNUCLEOTIDE
• In DNA nucleotides are bond to each other by phosphodiester bond
• In case of no 3’OH no it cannot form a phosphodiester bond
• CHAIN TERMINATION
