454 Sequencing (pyrosequencing)

454 Sequencing is a type of next generation sequencing where a DNA sample is made into single strand fragments. The fragments are adapted to bind to a bead. Each bead allows for isolating the DNA to be amplified by PCR and then sequenced. During sequencing probed nucleotides when annealed to DNA send a light to a detector to sequence the DNA. This allows for rapid DNA sequencing.
