Szekvenálásán

Szekvenálásán is the Hungarian word for "sequencing," specifically referring to the process of determining the order of nucleotides in a DNA or RNA molecule. This fundamental technique in molecular biology has revolutionized our understanding of genetics and has numerous applications.

The process typically involves breaking down a long nucleic acid molecule into smaller fragments. These fragments are then analyzed to determine the sequence of their nucleotide bases (adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine in DNA; adenine, guanine, cytosine, and uracil in RNA). Various methods exist for sequencing, with Sanger sequencing being an older, foundational technique and next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies offering higher throughput and lower costs.

The results of sequencing are often represented as a string of letters, such as "ATGCGTAC." This sequence information is crucial for identifying genes, understanding genetic variations associated with diseases, studying evolutionary relationships between organisms, and developing personalized medicine. Applications range from diagnosing inherited disorders and identifying pathogens to forensic science and agricultural advancements. The ability to read the genetic code through sequencing has opened up vast possibilities for scientific research and biotechnological innovation.
