Strategies Used in Sequencing Projects
Sanger's Method
Frederick Sanger's dideoxy chain termination method uses dideoxynucleotides, in which the DNA fragment can be terminated at different points. The DNA is separated on the basis of size, and these bands, based on the size of the fragments, can be read.
