RE: Sequencing DNA using Gel Electrophoresis
@alexander.alexis This is very nice write up on Sanger di-deoxy sequencing. I should point out that the 1980 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded to both Walter Gilbert and Frederick Sanger for their contributions in determining sequences in DNA. The Maxam–Gilbert sequencing was the first widely adopted method for DNA sequencing, but the Sanger di-deoxy method became the predominant method. The 1980 Nobel prize was also awarded to Paul Berg for his studies on the biochemistry of DNA.
Cheers!
Very true. I learned about this while researching for this post, but some leftover phrasing implied otherwise. I now slightly altered the first paragraph to reflect what you said.
Thanks for reading and commenting!
