Abstract: Contemporary gene sequencing techniques, including “Next Generation Sequencing” techniques, can include sequencing a plurality of fragments of a target polynucleotide. However, tire limitations of existing sequencing techniques, and the often repetitive or otherwise difficult-to-sequence structure of natural polynucleotides, means that it can be difficult and/or expensive to generate accurate sequences. Methods provided herein include inserting dual polynucleotide ‘barcodes,’ along with neighboring primer sequences, into a target polynucleotide prior to other sequencing processes. These inserted barcodes can improve the accuracy of sequences generated for the target by adding ‘noise’ into the target, allowing subsequent sequencing techniques (e.g., alignment, stitching, etc.) to more accurately estimate the target-plus-barcodes sequence.

Abstract: Contemporary gene sequencing techniques, including “Next Generation Sequencing” techniques, can include sequencing a plurality of fragments of a target polynucleotide. These fragment sequences are then used to determine a sequence for the target as a whole. This can include aligning the fragment sequences to each other anchor to a reference genome. However, the limitations of existing sequencing techniques, and the often repetitive or otherwise difficult-to-sequence structure of natural polynucleotides, means that it can be difficult and/or expensive to generate accurate sequences. Methods provided herein include inserting polynucleotide ‘barcodes’ into a target polynucleotide prior to fragmentation or other sequencing processes. These inserted barcodes can improve the accuracy of sequences generated for the target by adding ‘noise’ into the target, allowing subsequent sequencing techniques (e.g., alignment, stitching, etc.) to more accurately estimate the target-plus-barcodes sequence.
