sequencing technologies overview

[strob]

Dear all,

after attending the AGBT2010 meeting, I made this list of potential sequencing technologies out there. Is this list complete?

1. illumina (Avantome, GAIIx, HisSeq2000) (http://www.illumina.com/applications/sequencing.ilmn)
2. Roche (454 Genome Sequencer FLX, GS Junior) (http://454.com/products-solutions/45...-portfolio.asp)
3. Life Technologies (SOLiD, Single Molecule Sequencing) (http://www.lifetechnologies.com/sequencing.html)
4. Helicos (True Single Molecule Sequencing) (http://www.helicosbio.com/)
5. Pacific Biosciences (Real Time Single Molecule Sequencing) (http://www.pacificbiosciences.com/)
6. Ion Torrent (Post-Light Sequencing™ technology) (http://www.iontorrent.com/)
7. Oxford nanopore (Single Molecule Sequencing) (http://www.nanoporetech.com/)
8. IBM nanopore sequencing (Single Molecule Sequencing) (http://www-03.ibm.com/press/us/en/pr...ease/28558.wss)
9. Nabsys (nanopore + electronic sequencing) (http://www.nabsys.com/)
10. ZS Genetics (http://www.zsgenetics.com/)
11. Visigen (http://genomics.xprize.org/teams/vis...chnologies-inc)
12. Halcyon Molecular (http://www.halcyonmolecular.com/)
13. Complete Genomics (only human till now) (http://www.completegenomics.com/)
14. Mobious (Nexus I) (http://www.mobious.com/mobious_produ...18/page18.html)
15. Polonator (MPS by ligation) (http://www.polonator.org/)
16. Cracker (SMRT on a chip) http://www.crackerbio.com/
17. Kavli Institute of Nanoscience; Graphene Nanopores (http://arxiv.org/ftp/arxiv/papers/1005/1005.4754.pdf)
18. ...

Hope this could be helpful,

I thought that Bionanomatrix only provides chips to line up the DNA, but they don't do any sequencing themselves...

AGBT 2010 sequencing technology summary

Complete Genomics (http://www.completegenomics.com/) provides large-scale sequencing of human genomes as a service. Its focus hasn't changed.

[strob]

that's why they are number 13 in my list (speaking as a plant scientist) ;-)

[LisaOsborne]

Ah, wishful thinking then!

[ECO]

What do you all think, is it time to expand "The Pipeline" forum into more companies (the list above being a great start)?

My rule was previously that you had to have a commercially released instrument, but I think there is definitely room for more discussion that one forum allows.

Thoughts?

[GW_OK]

I think Complete Genomics is best served with the Service Providers forum. How about a "single molecule sequencing" forum.

PS Ion Torrent isn't single strand sequencing.

[strob]

indeed, I adjusted the list: Ion Torrent (Post-Light Sequencing™ technology)

Thanks

[ECO]

"Single Molecule" I think is what you're looking for vs. "single strand"

[flxlex]

@ECO: yes, why not have the Pipeline for "those that either have a commercially released instrument, or are well on their way". I guess you can be the judge, and we'll protest if we don't agree a certain system falls under the definition :-)

[Chipper]

Some additions to the list:

* Mobious: Nexus I

http://www.mobious.com/mobious_products/page18/page18.html

* Illumina: Avantome (pyrosequencing)
* Polonator (MPS by ligation)
* Cracker (SMRT on a chip) http://www.crackerbio.com/

I would wait and see what's the number of questions each new platform gets. As soon as we see some traffic then you can create specific Forums.

One vote for, one vote against. Need more input.

I think it would be a good opportunity to clearly lay out the technical summaries of each company...like I did so long ago on the Next Gen Summaries page.

I am in favor of adding them by request (by users or vendors). It looks like there are a lot of companies/technologies and it would get cluttered quickly if a forum existed for each one before there are users/vendors who would post to the site.
