Pyrosequencing is a method of DNA sequencing (determining the order of nucleotides in DNA) based on the "sequencing by synthesis" principle, in which the sequencing is performed by detecting the nucleotide incorporated by a DNA polymerase. Pyrosequencing relies on light detection based on a chain reaction when pyrophosphate is released. Hence ...
Standard flowgram format (SFF) is a binary file format used to encode results of pyrosequencing from the 454 Life Sciences platform for high-throughput sequencing.SFF files can be viewed, edited and converted with DNA Baser SFF Workbench (graphic tool), or converted to FASTQ format with sff2fastq or seq_crumbs.
Spin2cool 18:32, 4 May 2007 (UTC) After reading the introduction I feel that the 454 should only be mentioned later under recent advantages. This way it appears that 454 is the only way pyrosequencing is applied. In addition, it is a bit of a repetition.CharonZ 10:06, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
In a de Bruijn graph, there is a possibility of 4^k different nodes to make arrangements of a genome. The number of nodes used to create the graph can be reduced in number by considering only the k-mers found within the DNA strand of interest. Given sequence 1, it is possible to determine the nodes of size 7, or 7-mers, that will be in the graph.
Pyrosequencing has also been used to analyze bisulfite-treated DNA without using methylation-specific PCR. [7] [8] Following PCR amplification of the region of interest, pyrosequencing is used to determine the bisulfite-converted sequence of specific CpG sites in the region. The ratio of C-to-T at individual sites can be determined ...
In thermodynamics, a temperature–entropy (T–s) diagram is a thermodynamic diagram used to visualize changes to temperature (T ) and specific entropy (s) during a thermodynamic process or cycle as the graph of a curve. It is a useful and common tool, particularly because it helps to visualize the heat transfer during a process.
A ternary plot, ternary graph, triangle plot, simplex plot, or Gibbs triangle is a barycentric plot on three variables which sum to a constant. [1] It graphically depicts the ratios of the three variables as positions in an equilateral triangle .
Once the DNA strand has been read, the strand that was just added is washed away. Then, the index 1 primer attaches, polymerizes the index 1 sequence, and is washed away. The strand forms a bridge again, and the 3' end of the DNA strand attaches to an oligo on the flow cell. The index 2 primer attaches, polymerizes the sequence, and is washed away.
