If you think about it, using a DNA polymerase is like doing a single base (1 mer) ligation.

I still find it weird, why they just dont use universal bases in general (for the 6 others nucleotides and not just 3).. rather then doing that, they make 1024 possible types of oligonucleotide...
I suppose its to make them more specific because otherwise you would get more wrongly hybridised pieces.

But this brings me to my next question: whats the idea/point behind having those "z" nucleotides and the "n" ones?
Why not just "n" for all of them?
Isnt it better to have all "n" nucleotides , so it can bind any nucleotide?

N vs Z nucleotide
Dear all,
What does a "z" means in term of nucleotides?
I am assuming that the "n" means: any base (so it could be any base that binds those "n" spots).
See attaced figure for "n" and "z".Attached FilesTags: None

Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...-

Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...-
