Sequencing Image

Description

Sequencing determines the precise order of nucleotides in a DNA or RNA molecule, providing detailed genetic information.

Full Details

Sequencing is a powerful tool used to determine the exact sequence of nucleotides (the building blocks of DNA and RNA) in a given genetic material. By mapping the order of these nucleotides, sequencing provides valuable insights into the genetic makeup of an organism, helping identify genetic mutations, inherited diseases, and other conditions. It plays a crucial role in personalized medicine, allowing treatments to be tailored based on an individual’s genetic profile.

More About This Test

🔬 Understanding Sequencing

Sequencing is a technique that involves decoding the genetic material of an organism. By determining the precise order of DNA or RNA molecules, sequencing helps scientists and doctors understand the genetic basis of diseases, identify mutations, and predict treatment responses.

🧬 Types of Sequencing

  • 1️⃣ DNA Sequencing – Identifies the order of nucleotides in a DNA molecule, useful for identifying genetic disorders and mutations.
  • 2️⃣ RNA Sequencing – Decodes RNA sequences, providing insights into gene expression and cellular function.
  • 3️⃣ Whole Genome Sequencing – Sequencing the entire genome of an organism to detect variations across all genes.
  • 4️⃣ Targeted Sequencing – Focuses on specific regions of the genome, commonly used for gene mutation testing.
