[@iamseebabhatia]

Sequencing by synthesis is used by Illumina. It is step-by-step incorporation of a reversible fluorescent and a terminated nucleotide. All the bases are added to the sequencing chip. Once a base is incorporated, the rest are washed away. The fluorescent is read and recorded. The fluorescent marker and the terminated nucleotide is removed. This process is repeated until gene sequencing is complete. It eliminates the homopolymer error issue but it was has increased error due to increased read lengths.

[@abmgood]

well, a few more details would be fine, like what are the terminator gaps in sequencing by synthesis and how they are cleaved!

[@abmgood]

Hi DUFo476! In general, Sequencing by Synthesis (SBS) technology uses fluorescently labeled dNTPs which act as "reversible terminators" for polymerization. During each sequencing cycle, a single labeled dNTP is added to the nucleic acid chain. Then the fluorescent dye is identified using laser excitation and imaging. Finally, the reversible terminator is enzymatically cleaved to allow for the next round of dNTP incorporation to occur. Does this answer your question? If not, please elaborate on your question and we will provide you with more information!

How reliable are the sequences of whole virus genomes using NGS?

[@abmgood]

The key in NGS sequencing is the starting material. If the virus genome is isolated with high quality DNA/RNA, then NGS will provide high quality data. If the isolated DNA/RNA is degraded, then the sequencing result will also decrease in quality. Hope this answers your question!

Hi! Of course, it is much easier to perform a microarray analysis on gene code but a miseq analysis provide a higher significance of result. Though its expensive but it is usually worth it. I would like to know what are all the advantages of using Miseq over microarray? Many thanks!

[@jeffchu8436]

Hi Sebastian, Microarray relies on hybridization of DNA fragments to probes on a chip. To synthesize probes for microarray, you will need to know the sequence ahead of time. Thus, microarray can only examine known sequences either for copy number or gene expression. Sequencing is an unbiased approach to examine all the sequences, known and unknown. For studies that require quantification, sequencing can certainly provide better quantification. E.g. how many reads aligned to this gene or this DNA region has X times coverage. Of course, sequencing can provide base-pair resolution on genomic variations and breakpoints while microarrays (such as aCGH) can only provide a rough estimate where the breakpoint may be.

[@abmgood]

If you're looking to learn more about what primers are in general, the Wikipedia article on primers is actually a great starting point: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primer_(molecular_biology). The article talks about primers in Sanger Sequencing in this passage: "DNA sequencing is used to determine the nucleotides in a DNA strand. The Sanger chain termination method of sequencing uses a primer to start the chain reaction. It is worth noting that primers are not always for DNA synthesis, but can in fact be used by viral polymerases, e.g. influenza, for RNA synthesis."

[@AwaisAkram7777]

I have a confusion "What's different between 2nd Generation sequencing and next Generation sequencing ??"

[@abmgood]

Sanger and Maxam-Gilbert sequencing technologies (i.e. first generation) were the most common sequencing technologies until the development of massively parallel sequencing. To distinguish the new technologies from the old, they were called "next generation" or "second generation" sequencing (NGS) methods. Therefore when researchers talk about NGS, they are often referring to second generation sequencing. However, keep in mind that there might always be a "next" generation as new sequencing methods get developed. Therefore to be specific, it is best to refer to the different generations as "first", "second", or "third" instead of "next".

The maximum read length we can sequence is 2x300bp, using MiSeq V3. Larger templates can undergo a tagmentation step first, i.e. transposases randomly cut the DNA template into short fragments ("tags") followed by addition of adaptors on either side of the cut points (ligation).

There are bad videos and then there is this video! Not sure if the viewer is supposed to listen to the speaker or the infernal music. Multiple viewers have made the comment on the music, but either the moderators are not reading the comments or they just don't care!

Hello Mitali, We are really sorry to hear that! Indeed, we do care very much about our viewers feedback and have replied back to everyone's comment on the music. Unfortunately, we couldn't replace the old videos but you can always mute the video and turn on the caption instead if it bothers too much! :)

I love the content but the speaker is a little bit fast, so before you get to understand it, she is so done

[@abmgood]

Thanks for your comments! We will take them into consideration as we make our new videos. In the meantime, we do have closed-captioning if this helps. We also have a more in-depth knowledge base that you could read at your leisure: goo.gl/Ce0M4O. Hope this helps!

Hi Allison, thanks for watching and glad our video helped! Let us know if you have any questions!

thanks for the good video but she talks too fast for me ! and the background music is disturbing.

[@abmgood]

Hi Narges, thanks for your comment! Yes, unfortunately, this was one of our earlier videos and we've been working on fixing those issues in our newer releases. If this helps, our videos have closed captions that you can turn on if you want to lower the volume, or you can also try slowing down the speed under the video's Settings > Speed option.

The background music is too loud and distracting

[@abmgood]

Hello there, We are well aware of this issue but unfortunately we couldn't replace all the old videos. However, we have made improvements on our latest videos so please check them out! :) As an alternative solution, you can always mute the video and turn the caption on if the background music bothers too much :) Thank you!

NGS is NOT a platform, it is a technology...

[@abmgood]

Hi Leonid, thanks for watching our video and leaving a comment to clarify! You are correct that in the context of this video, NGS is a technology, although in the video, we also discuss many NGS platforms/machines that are based on NGS technology.

Applied Biological Materials - abm Sure. NGS is a technology, while a particular machine built on this technology can be called an NGS platform. But conceptually it is still a technology :)
