3
DQα AmpliType® kit
The first commercial kit, developed in the late 1980s by Cetus Corporation in Emeryville, CA.

4
allele-specific hybridization
In _______, allele discrimination is based on an optimal condition allowing only the perfectly matched probe–target hybridization to form.
New cards
5
Primer extension methods
These are based on the ability of DNA polymerase to incorporate specific deoxynucleotides (dNTPs) complementary to the sequence of the template DNA.
New cards
6
Allele-specific oligonucleotide ligation
It is based on the condition that only the allelic probe perfectly matched to the target is ligated.
New cards
7
invasive cleavage method
In the ______, allelic discrimination is based on DNA sequence-specific cleavage by endonucleases.
New cards
8
de novo genome sequencing
In _________, uncharacterized genomes or characterized genomes with substantial structural variations are sequenced.
New cards
9
resequencing applications
In ________, characterized genomes are sequenced. Sequence reads are assembled against an existing reference sequence to identify sequence polymorphisms.
New cards
10
Target resequencing
is a useful method of resequencing that can be utilized for forensic applications. The genomic regions of interest from a DNA sample are selectively isolated through a method known as enrichment.

11
Mate-pair library
It is often used in de novo sequencing applications.
New cards
12
Fragment Library
It is often used for resequencing and forensic applications.
New cards
13
emulsion PCR
In the ________, single-stranded DNA templates are bound to beads.
New cards
14
solid-phase PCR
In _______, both forward and reverse primers are attached to a slide.

15
Pyrosequencing Technology
During this method, each nucleotide substrate is introduced one at a time. Only the correct nucleotide corresponding to the template is incorporated, and a pyrophosphate is released.
New cards
16
coverage or the sequencing depth
The average number of times that each nucleotide in the genomic regions of interest is sequenced is known as the _______.
