DNA sequence comparison is component of molecular pathology.
DNA sequencing redirect here.
Nomenclature
This is still somewhat in flux.[1]
Data format
FASTA: This contains just DNA sequence. The first line starts with '>' and contains the record name.
FASTQ: This contains DNA sequence data with quality scores: The quality scores are indicated by defined characters.
Basic local alignment search tool
- AKA BLAST.
Using BLAST
- Go to BLAST web site ( http://blast.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Blast.cgi ).
- Enter sequence.
- Enter consensus sequence (can be found with OMIM).
- Hit enter.
