There is a growing demand for high-throughput methods for analysis of single-nucleotide polymorphic (SNP) positions. Here, we have evaluated a novel sequencing approach, pyrosequencing, for such purposes. Pyrosequencing is a sequencing-by-synthesis method in which a cascade of enzymatic reactions yi
A common problem in conventional DNA sequencing is the occurrence of DNA sequence compressions during gel electrophoresis, leading to misreading of the sequence. These compressions are usually due to secondary structures in the DNA fragment. In this study, we present a non-gel-based DNA sequencing t
