DNA Sequencing (CAT#: STEM-MB-0040-WXH)

Introduction

DNA sequencing is the process of determining the nucleic acid sequence – the order of nucleotides in DNA. It includes any method or technology that is used to determine the order of the four bases: adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine. <br />DNA sequencing is the process of determining the sequence of nucleic acids -- the order of nucleotides in DNA. It includes any method or technique used to determine the order of the four bases: adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine.<br />The principle of DNA sequencing is to use a DNA polymerase to extend the primer bound to the undetermined sequence template until a chain-terminating nucleotide is incorporated.
