Next Generation Sequencing (NGS)

An introduction by ABM

Deoxyribonucleic acid, commonly known as DNA, contains the blueprints of life. Within its structures are the codes required for the assembly of proteins and non-coding RNA – these molecular machineries affect all the biological systems that create and maintain life. By understanding the sequence of DNA, researchers have been able to elucidate the structure and function of proteins as well as RNA and have gained an understanding of the underlying causes of disease. Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) is a powerful platform that has enabled the sequencing of thousands to millions of DNA molecules simultaneously. This powerful tool is revolutionizing fields such as personalized medicine, genetic diseases, and clinical diagnostics by offering a high throughput option with the capability to sequence multiple individuals at the same time.
