Title:
Whole Genome Profiling - a novel method for physical mapping and
sequence assembly
By: Jan van Oeveren, KeyGene
Venue: Biomolecular Science
Building Room 3118
Abstact:
We developed a novel technology, whole genome profiling (WGP), which
uses the power of next generation sequencing technologies, such as
Illumina GA, to identify unique sequence tags and construct high
quality physical maps. These maps are constructed by sequence-based
fingerprinting of a BAC library. Pooled BAC clones are identified by
amplified restriction fragments and the ends of these fragments are
sequenced to obtain WGP tags, most of which are unique in the genome.
Subsequently, fingerprint contig building software is used to align the
tagged BACs into a whole genome physical map. The resulting map with
unique WGP tags will provide anchor points to link sequence read
assemblies and thus integrate WGP with WGS to obtain high quality, high
coverage genome assemblies.
