Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS)
Sequencing complete genomes
Whole Genome Sequencing
Whole genome sequencing offers the possibility of interrogating the entire DNA sequence of the genome of an isolated organism, whether eukaryotic, prokaryotic or viral. The emergence of whole genome sequencing technology is a revolutionary advance in all areas of the life sciences, providing invaluable information on gene structure and function. GeT-IT experts offer customized solutions for each project, depending on the scientific aim and the size and complexity of the genome to be studied.
- Identify all nucleotide and structural variations (SNPs, INDELs, SVs, CNVs) with great precision, and understand their biological consequences.
- Identify polymorphisms on a population scale, in order to characterize the mechanisms underlying the origin, development, growth and evolution of species.
