Genome sequencing


 

Keywords:  Sequencing technologies, highly parallel, single-molecule and single-cell


 



 


 


Abstract

A basic introduction to "Next Generation Sequencing" concepts and technologies.


 


This unit ...

Prerequisites

You need the following preparation before beginning this unit. If you are not familiar with this material from courses you took previously, you need to prepare yourself from other information sources:

  • Biomolecules: The molecules of life; nucleic acids and amino acids; the genetic code; protein folding; post-translational modifications and protein biochemistry; membrane proteins; biological function.

You need to complete the following units before beginning this one:


 


Objectives

This unit will ...

  • ... introduce methods and concepts of "Next Generation Sequencing" and genome assembly.


 


Outcomes

After working through this unit you ...

  • ... are familar with the basic methods and concepts of "Next Generation Sequencing" and genome assembly.


 


Deliverables

  • Time management: Before you begin, estimate how long it will take you to complete this unit. Then, record in your course journal: the number of hours you estimated, the number of hours you worked on the unit, and the amount of time that passed between start and completion of this unit.
  • Journal: Document your progress in your Course Journal. Some tasks may ask you to include specific items in your journal. Don't overlook these.
  • Insights: If you find something particularly noteworthy about this unit, make a note in your insights! page.
