What is ngs ?
Why is it important ?
What can it do ?
An example :-
The human genome project took 13 years and cost $3 billion in the US alone
A single Solexa run takes 4 days, sequences 18billion base pairs and costs about $5000
2D protein gel
5'---G AATTC---3'
3'---CTTAA G---5'
SmaI
Types of restriction enzyme cut, include 5'-CCC|GGG-3'
Blunt end 3'-GGG|CCC-5'
Sticky end (5' recessed or 3' recessed) KpnI
5'-GGTAC|C-3'
3'-C|CATGG-5'

Stats:
• read lengths up to 1,000
bp
• accuracy 99.999%
• costs $0.50 per kilobase
• low throughput
Over-expression experiments
driving expression from a vector with a strong promoter
Ablation/Depletion experiments
RNAi – RNA interference (miRNA, siRNA)
antisense – drive antisense RNA from expression vector
knockout – traditional or conditional
