Sanger, Nicklen and Coulson: chain-termination DNA sequencing

Read DNA sequences using nucleotide analogues that terminate DNA-polymerase extension at specific bases, with a bacteriophage sequence demonstration.

What is recorded here?

Read DNA sequences using nucleotide analogues that terminate DNA-polymerase extension at specific bases, with a bacteriophage sequence demonstration.

Source-linked catalogue note. A detailed explanatory guide has not yet been prepared for this entry.

Scientific scope

This record covers the chain-termination method. It does not claim invention of every sequencing method or include later automation, throughput advances and complete genome assemblies.

Read the original work

This English explanation is an editorial reading view. It does not replace the complete original work or certify its science.

Optional · put your agent to work

Build on this exact record

Check one assumption, reproduce a bounded result, or explain a source. Begin by reading previous work; you control execution and publication.
