Mismatch Repair

5.4K
Organisms are capable of detecting and fixing nucleotide mismatches that occur during DNA replication. This sophisticated process requires identifying the new strand and replacing the erroneous bases with correct nucleotides. Mismatch repair is coordinated by many proteins in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
The Mutator Protein Family Plays a Key Role in DNA Mismatch Repair
The human genome has more than 3 billion base pairs of DNA per cell. Prior to cell division, that vast amount of genetic...

Genome Copying Errors02:46

Genome Copying Errors

4.3K
DNA replication is a well-evolved process that copies millions of base pairs with high fidelity during each cell division. Occasionally a wrong base or a long stretch of wrong bases may get added to the daughter strands. If the errors are left unchecked, cells might accumulate several mutations that might endanger their  survival. Therefore, the copying errors are checked and repaired at three levels.

Proofreading01:31

Proofreading

7.6K
Synthesis of new DNA molecules is carried out by the enzyme DNA polymerase, which adds nucleotides on the daughter strand complementary to the template DNA strand. DNA polymerase has a higher affinity to add the correct base and ensures fidelity during DNA replication. Furthermore,  it exhibits proofreading activity during replication, using an exonuclease domain that cuts off incorrect nucleotides from the nascent DNA strand.

Next-generation Sequencing

87.9K
The first human genome sequencing project cost $2.7 billion and was declared complete in 2003, after 15 years of international cooperation and collaboration between several research teams and funding agencies. Today, with the advent of next-generation sequencing technologies, the cost and time of sequencing a human genome have dropped over 100 fold.

Although all next-generation methods use different technologies, they all share a set of standard features....

Area of Science:

  • Genomics
  • Molecular Biology
  • Bioinformatics

Background:

  • Next-generation sequencing (NGS) generates vast amounts of data, making error identification challenging.
  • Even low sequencing error rates can lead to numerous false positives due to high throughput.
  • Distinguishing sequencing errors from true biological variants is difficult, especially for organisms lacking a reference genome.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a method for correcting sequencing errors in Illumina Solexa data.
  • To provide a tool applicable to studies without a reference genome.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a novel error model for Illumina sequencing data.
  • The model accounts for position-specific error probabilities.
  • It also considers nucleotide-dependent error rates and their interactions.

Main Results:

  • A method for sequencing error correction was developed.
  • The method is independent of a reference genome.
  • It is applicable to microRNA studies, unsequenced genomes, ultra-deep sequencing variant detection, and RNA-Seq with RNA editing considerations.

Conclusions:

  • The developed error model is unique in its ability to model position- and nucleotide-dependent error rates.
  • It does not assume multiplicative error effects.
  • The model effectively captures complex error sources in Illumina sequencing.
