Chapter 13, Problem 13QP
Summary Introduction
Introduction: In the formation of human genomic library, the fragments of DNA used in the process can vary in size which can be picked up by the plasmid easily. About 8 million plasmids are required to include all the genetic information from an individual cell.

You don't need to trim the reads for 16S sequencing, but you do for whole genome sequencing. B. Whole genome sequencing files will have more reads in them because genomes are bigger than 16S amplicons. C. The read alignment and contig assembly steps would probably be harder for whole genome sequencing. D. The 16S molecules being sequenced are always DNA, while for whole genome sequencing they could be RNA or DNA going into the illumina sequencer. E. NGS for 16S and whole genome sequencing can both use sample indexes/barcodes to maximize efficiency. F.

If an error occurs in the first round of amplification, all the subsequent copies of that library fragment will also carry the variant, even though it is not present in the genome. However, reads from other library fragments spanning this same region will not have the variant, which means that identifying PCR copies, or clones, of library fragments during analysis can help to identify these types of errors. Based on what you know about PCR, which of the following statements would be true about the PCR clones in a sequencing library? A. PCR is subject to amplification bias, so reads derived from PCR clones will only map to regions that are not GC-rich. B. PCR is subject to amplification bias, so reads derived from PCR clones will only map to non-repetitive regions. C. PCR produces identical copies, so reads derived from PCR clones would map to the exact same location. D. PCR introduces many…arrow_forward
