2. PRINCIPLE
What is sanger sequencing?
Sanger sequencing (Chain-termination PCR ) works just like standard PCR, but with
one major difference: the addition of modified nucleotides (dNTPs) called
dideoxyribonucleotides (ddNTPs).

Mechanism
Modified nucleotides (dNTPs) called

2. PRINCIPLE
Mechanism
Chain-termination PCR
The chain-terminated oligonucleotides are separated by size via gel
electrophoresis.
1, The negative charge of its phosphate backbone moves the DNA towards the
positive charged anode
2, Shorter DNA molecules can travel farther than longer counterparts

2. PRINCIPLE
Mechanism
Chain-termination PCR
Reading the gel to determine the sequence of the input DNA.
Each terminal ddNTP will correspond to a specific nucleotide in the original
sequence → By reading the gel bands from smallest to largest, we can
determine the 5’ to 3’ sequence of the original DNA strand.
2. PRINCIPLE Chain-termination PCR
Mechanism Reading the gel bands from smallest to largest
This is from 5’ to 3’ direction of the elongation chain

3. PROCEDURE - MODERN PREPARATION
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a technique used to amplify a single copy or
a few copies of a piece of DNA across several orders of magnitude, generating
thousands to millions of copies of a particular DNA sequence.

CONCLUSION
4. CONCLUSION
Advantages
-- Fast, cost-effective sequencing for low numbers
of targets
-- Familiar workflow
-- Sequencing of whole genomes
Disadvantages
-- Low sensitivity
-- Low discovery power
-- Not as cost-effective for high numbers of targets
-- Low scalability
Common questions
How do you know the primer sequence (for PCR) during
sequencing ?
The best thing you can do is search databases (NCBI, Ensembl) for sequences
of the closest relatives you can find.
Find the most conserved part --> design a set of primers, which would account
for all possible nucleotide combinations
However, there's a computer software with database do this for you
Note: Universal primers ( design by companies ) only work with specific
type of template
Common questions
The accuracy? Is the result is from right after the primer?
-- High accuracy if follow procedure – short fragments
-- In fact that high accuracy only after a few base right after the primers
Can directly sequence only relatively short (300-1000 nucleotides long) DNA
fragments in a single reaction.
The main obstacle to sequencing DNA fragments above this size limit is
insufficient power of separation for resolving large DNA fragments differ in
length by only one nucleotide.
--> Reversed primer to ensure the results
