How does HiFi sequencing achieve high accuracy? Question 13 options: By improved algorithms for signal interpretation. By slowing polymerase allowing for longer measurements of each base. By making multiple copies of a sequence and combining the signal of each molecule together. By sequencing the same molecule multiple times

Match sequencing technologies with their caveats. It struggles with repetitive nucleotides (TTTTTTTTTT) Produces long reads but has lower accuracy compared to other technologies. 1. Sanger 2. Illumina Accurate, but expensive (cost by sequenced basepair is high). Only can sequence a specific region at a time rather than the 3. Ion torrent whole genome in one run. 4. PacBio It struggles with repetitive sequences (ATGATGATGATG)

Approximately how many bases of DNA can be determined for each of the following in a 24-hour period? (2 pts) a. Sanger sequencing b. Illumina NovaSeq sequencing 2. Using the "Alignments" tab in the multiple sequence alignment to see the sequences aligned with one another, you will see that there is a gap of nucleotides (at approximately position 200) between sequence 1 and 3 consisting of additional "CAGG" bases in sequence 3. This is known as a gap. How do you score or "weigh" such a gap when making alignments? Is it the equivalent of 1 mutation, 4 mutations, or something else entirely? 3. Using the example of "gap weights," could search algorithm parameters influence alignment outcome? 4. In the protocol we followed, 16S rRNA gene segments were amplified by PCR, then individually ligated into a vector, transformed and propagated in bacteria, and 9 bacterial "clones" sequenced by the Sanger method. Each clone had a unique sequence we subsequently compared. If we had used an Illumina Next Generation Sequencing method, would the "cloning" of individual fragments have been necessary?
Which of these is important for preparing templates for Next Generation Sequencing? - DNA from tissue - Breaking DNA up into smaller fragments - Checking the quality and quantity of the fragment library - All of the above An ideal sequencing machine would provide us with: - Sequences of longer read length - Accurate sequences - Sequences at a high throughput - All of the above Next generation sequencing set up requires: - Library preparation - Extensive bioinformatics analysis - Both 1 and 2 are correct - Both 1 and 2 are wrong Improvements on sequencing methods benefit(s) of: - Lowering cost by sequencing smaller molecules - Rising speed by sequencing larger molecules
