“We wanted to show prospective participants how nucleic acid sequencing works and from there the corn dog sequencing experiment was born,” Thielen said.

A peptide nucleic acid (turquoise backbone) can bind to a strand of DNA (orange backbone) if their nucleobase sequences are complementary. DNA is the poster child for high-specificity binding.

One method that allows for targeted sequencing is called hybridization capture-based enrichment, which uses short pieces of nucleic acids called oligonucleotides as capture probes.

While sequencing has become much more affordable, navigating the entire process – from nucleic acid isolation to the sequencing run – can be a challenging journey, especially for scientists who are ...
