Intro to Computational Biology
Illumina sequencing is a high-throughput sequencing technology that allows for the rapid and cost-effective sequencing of DNA and RNA. It works by synthesizing complementary strands of DNA from a template, using fluorescently labeled nucleotides, enabling simultaneous sequencing of millions of fragments. This method has revolutionized genomics and proteomics by providing a means to analyze complex genomes and transcriptomes with remarkable accuracy and depth.
