Maxam-Gilbert Sequencing01:05

Maxam-Gilbert Sequencing

11.4K
In the same year as the discovery of the Sanger sequencing method, another group of scientists, Allan Maxam and Walter Gilbert, demonstrated their chemical-cleavage method for DNA sequencing. The Maxam-Gilbert method relies on using different chemicals that can cleave the DNA sequence at specific sites, the separation of resulting DNA fragments of variable size using electrophoresis, and deciphering the DNA sequence from the resulting gel bands.

Sanger Sequencing

756.9K
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...

RNA-seq

10.4K
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...

Leaky Scanning

5.2K
During most eukaryotic translation processes, the small 40S ribosome subunit scans an mRNA from its 5' end until it encounters the first start AUG codon. The large 60S ribosomal subunit then joins the smaller one to initiate protein synthesis. The location of the translation initiation is largely determined by the nucleotides near the start codon as there may be multiple translation initiation sites present on the mRNA.  Marilyn Kozak discovered that the sequence RCCAUGG (where R...

Next-generation Sequencing

92.5K
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.

Area of Science:

  • Computational Biology
  • Bioinformatics
  • Genomics

Background:

  • Seeding is crucial for large-scale sequence comparison in computational biology.
  • Substring-based seeding methods (e.g., kmers) are sensitive to errors in long reads.
  • SubseqHash, a subsequence-based method, offers high accuracy for error-prone sequences but is computationally slow.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop an improved subsequence-based seeding algorithm, SubseqHash2, that addresses the speed limitations of SubseqHash.
  • To enhance the accuracy and efficiency of seeding for long-read sequence analysis.

Main Methods:

  • SubseqHash2 computes multiple seed sets in one run using dynamic programming and k-order subsequences.
  • The algorithm is accelerated with Single Instruction, Multiple Data (SIMD) instructions for parallel computing.
  • Symmetric random tables ensure consistent seed generation for a string and its reverse complement.

Main Results:

  • SubseqHash2 outperforms popular substring-based methods (kmers, minimizers, syncmers, Strobemers) in read mapping, sequence alignment, and overlap detection.
  • It achieves a 10-50x speedup compared to SubseqHash with comparable accuracy.
  • SubseqHash2 successfully seeds hard-to-align reads that other methods miss.

Conclusions:

  • SubseqHash2 offers a significant speedup and maintains high accuracy, making subsequence-based seeding practical for large-scale long-read analysis.
  • The algorithm overcomes the limitations of traditional seeding methods for error-prone sequences.
  • SubseqHash2 paves the way for wider adoption of subsequence-based seeding in bioinformatics.
