Introduction Nucleic acid sequencing - method for determining the arrangement of nucleotides present in a given DNA or RNA molecule 1970s, Sanger and colleagues and Maxam and Gilbert developed - chain termination and fragmentation techniques Incentive for developing new strategies : Reductions in the cost The potential utility of short-read sequencing Development of new molecular methods General progress in technology across disparate fields Automated Sanger method -‘first-generation’ technology, & newer methods - next-generation sequencing (NGS).
3
Sanger sequencing Cycles of template denaturation, primer annealing and primer extension - cycle sequencing Primer extension is terminated by incorporation of fluorescently labeled dideoxynucleotides (ddNTPs) The label on the terminating ddNTP of any fragment corresponds to the nucleotide identity of its terminal position Sequence is determined by high-resolution electrophoretic separation in polymer gel and Laser excitation of fluorescent labels

NGS technologies The first NGS technology (2005 ) - the pyrosequencing method by 454 Life Sciences (now Roche) 2006- the Solexa/Illumina sequencing plat-form was commercialized (Illumina acquired Solexa in 2007). In Sequencing by Oligo Ligation Detection (SOLiD) by Applied Biosys-tems (now Life Technologies) In 2010, Ion Torrent (now Life Technologies) released the Personal Genome Machine (PGM). PGM uses semiconductor technology and does not rely on the optical detection of incorporated nucleotides using fluorescence and camera scanning. This resulted in higher speed, lower cost, and smaller instrument size.

454 Pyrosequencing

454 pyrosequencing Clonal sequencing features are generated by emulsion PCR, with amplicons captured to the surface of 28-μm beads Beads are treated with denaturant to remove untethered strands & subjected to a hybridization-based enrichment for amplicon- bearing beads A sequencing primer is hybridized to the universal adaptor at the appropriate position and orientation The amplicon-bearing beads are preincubated with Bacillus stearothermophilus (Bst) polymerase and single-stranded binding protein Deposited on to a microfabricated array of picoliterscale wells contining Smaller beads bearing immobilized enzymes - ATP sulfurylase and luciferase. One side of the semi-ordered array - flow cell & the other side is bonded to a fiber-optic bundle for CCD (chargecoupled device)-based signal detection.

The Solexa/Illumina sequencing platform
Libraries - mixture of adaptor-flanked fragments up to several hundred base-pairs (bp) in length. Amplified sequencing features are generated by bridge PCR In this approach, both forward and reverse PCR primers are tethered to a solid substrate by a flexible linker, There by amplicons arising from any single template molecule remain immobilized and clustered to a single physical location on an array. Alternating cycles of extension with Bst polymerase and denaturation with formamide The amplicons are single stranded (linearization) and a sequencing primer is hybridized to a universal sequence Nucleotides are ‘reversible terminators’, - chemically cleavable moiety at the 3′ hydroxyl position allows only a single-base incorporation to occur in each cycle

Sequencing by Oligo Ligation Detection (SOLiD)

Sequencing by Oligo Ligation Detection (SOLiD)
Clonal sequencing features are generated by emulsion PCR, with amplicons captured to the surface of 1-μM paramagnetic beads Beads bearing amplification products are immobilized to a solid planar substrate to generate a dense, disordered array A universal primer complementary to adaptor sequence is hybridized to the array of amplicon-bearing beads Sequencing by synthesis is driven by a DNA ligase with fluorescently labeled octamer The octamer mixture is structured, in that the identity of specific position(s) within the octamer (e.g., base 5) correlate with the identity of the fluorescent label. After ligation, images are acquired & octamer is chemically cleaved between positions 5 and 6 Upon completing several such cycles, the extended primer is denatured to reset the system

Ion Torrent sequencing
16
Ion Torrent sequencing
Combines computer software with integrated circuits and complementary metal-oxide semiconductors (CMOS). Adopts an electrochemical detection system called ion-sensitive field-effect transistors (ISFET) Detecting and analyzing the release of a hydrogen ion (or proton) on addition of a nucleotide triphosphate The proton release causes a slight pH shift which is detected by a CMOS sensor Each chip has at least 1.2 million sensors. Fragments of DNA are ligated to adapters and clonally amplify adapter-ligated libraries onto acrylamide beads DNA polymerase and primers are bound to templates and filled to loading port DNA fragments and DNA polymerase are sequentially flooded with unmodified dNTPs The hydrogen ion that is released in the reaction changes the pH of the solution, which is detected by an ISFET
18
Other NGS platforms Polony sequencing (Helicos BioSciences)
The template DNA is not amplified before sequencing, which places this method at the interface between NGS and the so-called third- generation sequencing technologies. Pacific Biosciences (PacBio) PacBio is based on the detection of natural DNA synthesis by a single DNA polymerase. Incorporation of phosphate-labeled nucleotides leads to base-specific fluorescence, which is detected in real time
19
Pac Bio single molecule, real-time sequencing technology (SMRT)
20
SMRT Sequencing-by-synthesis technology based on real-time imaging of fluorescently tagged nucleotides The sequencing reaction ends when the template and polymerase dissociate Uses phosporyated nucleoties with fluorescent tag at phospate group Utilizes a zero-mode waveguide (ZMW). A single DNA polymerase enzyme is affixed at the bottom of a ZMW with a single molecule of DNA as a template Once nucleotide is incorporated - fluorescent tag is cleaved off and diffuses out of the observation area of the ZMW Read lengths of 2.5 to 2.9 kilobases Released on 2010 , upgraded versions on 2011,2013 , now PacBio RS II with 5-7 Kb read length
