  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-003018",
  "term": "Deoxyribonucleic acid sequencing",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "The process of determining the precise order of nucleotides within a deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) molecule. This analytical technique involves reading the sequence of adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine bases that constitute the genetic code. It provides fundamental information for understanding genetic variations, gene function, and evolutionary relationships.",
