Sequencing unknown genome regions
Identify unknown sequences in the vicinity of known sequences using LILIS-PCR.
Using minimal amounts of genomic DNA, we systematically sequence large nucleotide segments employing a PCR based technique: LILIS-PCR. This technique - established by our scientists - is used to circumvent a shotgun sequencing approach, and the necessity to sequence many recombinant clones.
Main applications for LILIS-PCR:
- Determining the sequence of a cosmid inserts
- Determining the sequence of other integration vectors
- Identify the integration site of transposons
