Abstract:
Next-Generation Sequencing is an evolving technology employed in the field of cancer biology. This mini review is intended as a brief overview of NGS for the clinical utility in colorectal cancer. The pathogenesis and treatment of colorectal cancer will continue to evolve as NGS is applied to more patient samples, correlating tumor biology and outcomes.

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.

Advancements in molecular biology have revolutionized the identification and characterization of bacteria, with multiple methods leveraging DNA sequencing for enhanced precision. As sequencing technologies improve and costs decline, these approaches are increasingly used in clinical, environmental, and evolutionary studies.Multilocus Sequence Typing (MLST) examines several housekeeping genes, essential chromosomal genes encoding cellular functions, to distinguish strains. Approximately...
