The Genome in Plain View

Looking at position, orientation and structural detail–a more powerful way to study the genome. Whole Genome Maps generate high definition data for sequence assembly and public health applications that other methods cannot provide–and has been proven in labs around the world. And now a new application for plants, animals and human genomes is available–Genome-Builder™ software suite.

4 Steps to High Definition Microbial Analysis

Whole Genome Maps deliver a new paradigm for de novo sequence assembly and high resolution microbial strain typing–without using sequencing and amplification technologies that can introduce bias and errors. Over 50 publications using show the clear difference this technology provides–the difference that you can see.

 

 

This easy workflow delivers data for analysis in less than a day. For more details check out these video tutorials below for sample prep, processing and assembly of Whole Genome Maps.

Step 1: Preparation of Sample

Step 2: Collection of DNA Molecules and Restriction Digestion

Step 3: Scan and Assemble Single Molecule Maps

Step 4: Data Analysis

 Completed Assembly for Larger Genomes

With Genome-Builder you get a more complete view for comparative genomics and structure variation studies:

• Joins sequence scaffolds to close gaps
• Defines order and orientation for >90% of sequence contigs
• Completes assembly in two weeks with Genome-Builder™ installed into customer cluster pipeline
