Outline

PART I: NGS technologiesNext-Generation sequencing (NGS) technologies – overview

The automated Sanger method is considered as a ‘first-generation’ technology, and newer methods are referred to as next-generation sequencing (NGS).

Produce a non-biased source of nucleic acid material from the genome

Template preparation: STEP1

Produce a non-biased source of nucleic acid material from the genome

Current methods:◦ randomly breaking genomic DNA into smaller

sizes◦ Ligate adaptors◦ attach or immobilize the template to a solid

surface or support◦ the spatially separated template sites allows

thousands to billions of sequencing reactions to be performed simultaneously

The major advance offered by NGS is the ability to cheaply produce an enormous volume of data

The arrival of NGS technologies in the marketplace has changed the way we think about scientific approaches in basic, applied and clinical research

PART III: NGS workflow

data collection and processing – the exome sequencing pipeline

The human genome◦ Genome = 3Gb◦ Exome = 30Mb◦ 180 000 exons

Protein coding genes ◦ constitute only approximately 1% of the human

genome ◦ It is estimated that 85% of the mutations with

large effects on disease-related traits can be found in exons or splice sites
