Next-generation Sequencing

93.1K
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.

RNA-seq

RNA sequencing, or RNA-Seq, is a high-throughput sequencing technology used to study the transcriptome of a cell. Transcriptomics helps to interpret the functional elements of a genome and identify the molecular constituents of an organism. Additionally, it also helps in understanding the development of an organism and the occurrence of diseases. 
Before the discovery of RNA-seq, microarray-based methods and Sanger sequencing were used for transcriptome analysis. However, while...

Sanger Sequencing

DNA sequencing is a fundamental technique that is routinely used in the biological sciences. This method can be applied to a range of questions at different scales - from the sequencing of a cloned DNA fragment or the study of a mutation in a gene up to whole-genome sequencing. However, despite the widespread use of sequencing today, it was not until 1977 that Fredrick Sanger and his collaborators developed the chain-termination method to decode DNA sequences. It relies on the separation of a...

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...

Area of Science:

  • Genomics
  • Molecular Diagnostics
  • Bioinformatics

Background:

  • Copy number variants (CNVs) are crucial in genetic syndrome pathogenesis.
  • Current diagnostic methods like karyotyping are time-consuming (3-15 days).
  • Rapid CNV detection is needed for timely genetic disorder diagnosis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate Nanopore sequencing for rapid and accurate detection of pathogenic CNVs.
  • To compare Nanopore sequencing's diagnostic time and resolution with molecular karyotyping.
  • To assess the clinical utility of Nanopore sequencing as a routine diagnostic tool.

Main Methods:

  • Nanopore sequencing of DNA from seven patients with known CNVs.
  • Comparison with molecular karyotyping for detecting various CNV sizes and cellular fractions.
  • Real-time data analysis during sequencing runs.

Main Results:

  • Nanopore sequencing identified all pathogenic CNVs with resolution comparable to current methods.
  • Detection time was inversely proportional to CNV size and cellular fraction.
  • Aneuploidies were detected in 30 minutes; small CNVs required up to 30 hours.

Conclusions:

  • Nanopore sequencing provides a clinically valuable tool for molecular diagnosis of genomic disorders.
  • This approach significantly reduces diagnostic time from days to hours.
  • Nanopore sequencing is easily implementable as a routine diagnostic method.
