A DNA strand was sequenced using the Sanger method
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KTstRrDTmWI). The reaction
tube contained the DNA strand, fluorescently labelled
dideoxynucleotide triphosphates (ddATP – yellow, ddGTP – green,
ddCTP – blue, ddTTP - red), deoxynucleotide triphosphates, DNA
polymerase, or its Klenow fragment. Synthesis of DNA is allowed to
proceed, and the results are shown on the right:
