Base Sequence Analysis
Term · Environment · MLC-T-ENV-002788
1. A method, sometimes automated, for determining the base sequence.
2. DNA sequencing is a laboratory technique used to determine the exact sequence of bases (A, C, G, and T) in a DNA molecule. The DNA base sequence carries the information a cell needs to assemble protein and RNA molecules. DNA sequence information is important to scientists investigating the functions of genes.
