Some couple are using DNA sequescing to select things such as gender, skin color, size, and eye color of their unborn baby. A lot of doctors discourage this type of DNA sequencing.

Why are ddNTPs used for DNA sequencing?
Because on the addition of the normal ddNTP to the sequencing, there will be addition of another nucleotide added by DNA polymerase which keeps DNA sequencing going.
How many methods are used in DNA sequencing?
Since the birth of DNA sequencing in the 70's several methods have been developed which have become increasingly more efficient. There are probably 10-15 mainstream ways of sequencing, although dye-terminator sequencing is the one primarily used
What does DNA isolation used for?
Gene sequencing and gene cloning
Are gels used to read DNA sequences?
They do not sequence DNA by themselves but gels can separate DNA pieces to then be used for sequencing. Basically no
What is the process used for DNA Sequencing?
There were initially two methods used for DNA sequencing, but today there are dozens. Genome sequencing is defined as any process that determines the order of nucleotides within an atom of DNA. It is almost always accomplished automatically in modern applications, using machines specifically designed for the job.
What is DNA sequencing used for?
determine the rick of developing certain diseases
Who discovered the technique of DNA sequencing?
DNA sequencing was first discovered by Fredrick sanger in 1950s
What is the 454 sequencing system?
Researching has shown that the 454 sequencing system is a scientific system that is used to process and identify different DNA's. This is a process that is used for analysis.
Describe what is meant by the term rapid sequencing?
Sequencing DNA rapidly
2 disorders caused by DNA sequencing?
DNA sequencing is an analytical method used in the laboratory to find out the sequence of nucleotides on a strand (or chain) of DNA. It does not cause any disorders. What causes disorders are mutations, which are unregulated changes in the DNA sequence that happen within the body
Dideoxyribonucleotide chain-termination is a method of?
Sequencing DNA (Sanger Sequencing Method).
What is gene sequencing used to determine?
When you hear gene sequencing you first think of DNA mapping. We think of paternity tests but gene sequencing has been used to determine diseases. More recently it has been used to directly help the patient with proper diagnoses.
