A long DNA will be divided into small fragments, and one of them will be attached
to the bead and amplified in Ion Torrent sequencing. The beads with different kinds of
fragments will be loaded into different wells. The following graphs show the first forty (40)
signals from two different wells. The value of one (1) in the y-axis of the graph corresponds
to incorporation of one (1) nucleotide to every DNA strand on a bead.
(a)
You can observe that in every single step the signals are not the multiples of an
integer. Explain why such signals are produced and how we can interpret the signals.
(b)
Using the first forty (40) signals shown below, please figure out the DNA sequence
of the fragment attached to the bead in each well.
(c)
Based on the sequences of the fragments, can we guess the partial sequence of the
original DNA sequence (before fragmentation)? If so, what could it be?
(d)
In the well #1, when the non-zero signals will show up after the 40 steps? Answer
this by the step number, and explain why.
