9 Dideoxy Sequencing: Laboratory Procedure n Four reaction tubes, each with 32 P labeled DNA primer AND one of each: • d. NTPs + dd. NTP A • d. NTPs + dd. NTP G • d. NTPs + dd. NTP T • d. NTPs + dd. NTP C
Dideoxy Sequencing: Radioactive Labels 10
11 Dideoxy Sequencing: Radioactive n n n Special type of gel made from polyacrylamide and urea Separates DNA strands that differ by as little as ONE NUCLEOTIDE Single lane on the gel for each reaction • d. NTPs + dd. NTP A • d. NTPs + dd. NTP G • d. NTPs + dd. NTP T • d. NTPs + dd. NTP C

14 Dideoxy Sequencing with Fluorescent Dye (Hunkapiller, Hood et al. , Applied Biosystems)
Dideoxy Sequencing with Fluorescent Dye (Hunkapiller, Hood et al. , Applied Biosystems) n n Sequence data from the Genomics Core at the MSU Research Technology Support Facility (RTSF) Achieved using “Dye Terminators” • dd. NTP’s are labeled with a fluorescent dye • Black, G; Blue, C; Green, A; Red, T 15
16 Dideoxy Sequencing with Fluorescent Dyes (Hunkapiller, Hood et al. , Applied Biosystems) Each dd. NTP labeled with a unique fluorescent dye; four sets of reactions pooled.
