Nanopore sequencing

Nanopore sequencing is a sequencing approach in which individual DNA or RNA molecules pass through nanopores and produce signal changes that can be interpreted as sequence information.

Features

  • Long reads that can help with genome assembly and structural variant detection.
  • Real-time data generation and analysis.
  • Direct DNA or RNA sensing in many workflows.
  • Portable instruments suitable for field and rapid-response settings.

Common workflow

  1. Sample preparation and library construction.
  2. Sequencing on a nanopore device.
  3. Basecalling from raw signal to nucleotide sequence.
  4. Quality control and filtering.
  5. Alignment, assembly, variant calling, or metagenomic classification.
  6. Interpretation and reporting.
