DNA sequencing makes use of
A) chemical base-modification reactions to fragment the DNA.
B) base-specific enzymes to obtain the sequence.
C) families of restriction enzymes of known specificity to obtain the sequence.
D) alkaline hydrolysis and thin layer chromatography to obtain the base composition.
E) reassociation kinetics to determine the sequence complexity of DNA.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

DNA sequencing involves chemical base-modification reactions to fragment the DNA, which are then used to determine the sequence of bases in the DNA. This is a fundamental aspect of the Sanger sequencing method, one of the first and most widely used DNA sequencing methods.
