Sequencing single molecules of DNA.

چکیده
In 2004, the NIH set a remarkable challenge: the 1000 dollars genome. Roughly speaking, success would provide, by 2015, the ability to sequence the complete genome of an individual human, quickly and at an accessible price. An intermediate goal of a 100,000 dollars genome was set for 2010. While the cost of Sanger sequencing has dropped dramatically over the past two decades, it is unlikely that the 100,000 dollars genome will be achieved by this means. New massively parallel technologies will push the cost of sequencing towards this mark, but it is doubtful whether these efforts will match the 1000 dollars goal. The best bets for ultrarapid, low-cost sequencing are single-molecule approaches.

I-37: Establishing High Resolution Genomic Profiles of Single Cells Using Microarray and Next-Generation Sequencing Technologies
The nature and pace of genome mutation is largely unknown. Standard methods to investigate DNA-mutation rely on arraying or sequencing DNA from a population of cells, hence the genetic composition of individual cells is lost and de novo mutation in cell(s) is concealed within the bulk signal. We developed methods based on (SNP-) arraying and next-generation sequencing of single-cell whole-genom...
متن کاملReal-time DNA sequencing from single polymerase molecules.
Pacific Biosciences has developed a method for real-time sequencing of single DNA molecules (Eid et al., 2009), with intrinsic sequencing rates of several bases per second and read lengths into the kilobase range. Conceptually, this sequencing approach is based on eavesdropping on the activity of DNA polymerase carrying out template-directed DNA polymerization. Performed in a highly parallel op...
متن کاملSingle-Molecule Electrical Random Resequencing of DNA and RNA
Two paradigm shifts in DNA sequencing technologies-from bulk to single molecules and from optical to electrical detection-are expected to realize label-free, low-cost DNA sequencing that does not require PCR amplification. It will lead to development of high-throughput third-generation sequencing technologies for personalized medicine. Although nanopore devices have been proposed as third-gener...
متن کاملPhasing of single DNA molecules by massively parallel barcoding
High-throughput sequencing platforms mainly produce short-read data, resulting in a loss of phasing information for many of the genetic variants analysed. For certain applications, it is vital to know which variant alleles are connected to each individual DNA molecule. Here we demonstrate a method for massively parallel barcoding and phasing of single DNA molecules. First, a primer library with...
متن کاملDroplet barcoding for massively parallel single-molecule deep sequencing
The ability to accurately sequence long DNA molecules is important across biology, but existing sequencers are limited in read length and accuracy. Here, we demonstrate a method to leverage short-read sequencing to obtain long and accurate reads. Using droplet microfluidics, we isolate, amplify, fragment and barcode single DNA molecules in aqueous picolitre droplets, allowing the full-length mo...
متن کاملSingle-molecule, motion-based DNA sequencing using RNA polymerase.
We present a method for sequencing DNA that relies on the motion of single RNA polymerase molecules. When a given nucleotide species limits the rate of transcription, polymerase molecules pause at positions corresponding to the rare base. An ultrastable optical trapping apparatus capable of base pair resolution was used to monitor transcription under limiting amounts of each of the four nucleot...
