摘要: The development of automated sequencing platforms based upon capillary electrophoresis and fluorescently labeled terminator bases made it possible to generate the first draft sequence human genome. However, what started as an effort develop new technologies entire genomes cheaper faster than electrophoresis-based has engendered a revolution that resulted in tremendous increases output capacity. Since introduction these so-called next-generation 2006, various been increasing greater fivefold every year. This led dramatic correspondingly decreased costs for DNA sequencing. These will quickly make whole genome so affordable inevitably become routine part clinical practice. In this chapter we review discuss potential applications transformative technology.
