  • Patent number: 9359642
    Abstract: Provided are a method of constructing a nucleic acid library, a method of determining a nucleic acid sequence of a nucleic acid sample, and a kit thereof. The method of constructing the nucleic acid library includes the following steps: subjecting a nucleic acid sample to a DOP-PCR amplification, to obtain a first PCR amplification product; subjecting the first PCR amplification product to a second PCR amplification using a DOP-Amp primer, to obtain a second PCR amplification product; and subjecting the second PCR amplification product to an adaptor-ligation PCR, to obtain a third PCR amplification product, wherein the third PCR amplification product constitutes the nucleic acid library.

  • Patent number: 9238840
    Abstract: A method for analyzing a genome of a single cell is provided, and a kit is also provided. The method for analyzing the genome of the single cell may comprise separating and lysing the single cell to obtain a whole-genome DNA of the cell; subjecting the whole-genome DNA to a whole-genome amplification to obtain a whole-genome amplification product; performing a PCR amplification using the whole-genome amplification product as template and using housekeeping-gene-specific primers to detect the housekeeping gene of the whole-genome amplification product; and determining whether the whole genome amplification product meets a requirement for sequencing based on the detection result, wherein a uniform distribution of the amplification product in each chromosome is an indication of the amplification product meeting the requirement for sequencing.

  • Publication number: 20150012252
    Abstract: Provided are a method, system, and computer-readable medium for determining whether a copy number variation exists in a sample genome. The method includes sequencing a sample genome to obtain a sequencing result formed by multiple reads; comparing the sequencing result with a reference genome sequence to determine the distribution of the reads on the reference genome sequence; determining, based on the distribution of the reads on the reference genome sequence, multiple breakpoints on the reference genome sequence, wherein the number of the reads on either side of each breakpoint are significantly different; determining, based on the plurality of breakpoints, a detection window on the reference genome; determining, based on the reads falling in the detection window, a parameter; and determining, based on the difference between the first parameter and a preset threshold, whether a copy number variation exists in the sample genome against the detection window.

  • Publication number: 20140228226
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for determining the chromosome aneuploidy of a single cell and a system for determining the chromosome aneuploidy of a single cell. Among them, the method for determining the chromosome aneuploidy of a single cell according to the embodiments of the present invention comprises: the whole genome of the single cell is sequenced to obtain a first sequencing result; the total number of sequencing data from the first sequencing result is counted, obtaining a value L; the number of sequencing data of a first chromosome from the first sequencing result is counted, obtaining a value M; a first parameter is determined based on the value L and the value M; and it is determined whether or not the single cell has aneuploidy in respect of the first chromosome based on the difference between the first parameter and a predetermined control parameter.
