Abstract
In this study, modification of two methods of RNA sequencing resulted in more definitive sequencing bands. In one method of sequencing, the bands of lane A and lane G sometimes were not clear. Modifications of this method by changing the concentrations of ddATP and ddGTP resulted in the bands of lane A and lane G becoming more readable. Although a second sequencing method was found to have clearer bands than the first method, and the bases immediately downstream from the primer binding site could be read by using r-32P-labeled primer, the bands on the top of lane A still were not clear. Modifications of this second method by changing the ddATP/dATP ratio resulted in the bands of lane A becoming much clearer.
