Sanger Sequence Analysis

In this video series you will learn how to align your chromatograms to a reference sequence in Geneious Prime. Then use the Find Variations/SNPs tool to find variants and verify sequences.

Course Content

Introduction to Sanger Sequencing

INSIDE THE VIDEO
Learn how to check sequence quality, trim the ends and map chromatogram sequences against a reference. Then view the contig and edit bases.
