| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Using nicking endonucleases, DNA fragments with different cut sites in the top and bottom strands of double-stranded DNA can be prepared. Therefore, if a highly efficient method for adaptor tagging to single-stranded DNA is available, a sequencing library of DNA fragments with differential structures between the top and bottom strands of DNA may be prepared. In this project, we tried to establish such a protocol, based on a highly efficient single-stranded DNA ligation technology developed by us. The established protocol has been applied to sequencing using short-read sequencers like that from Illumina. In the future, we expect its application in long-read sequencers like that from Oxford Nanopore Technologies.
