Abstract

Conventional mitochondrial-DNA (MT DNA) sequencing approaches use Sanger sequencing of 20-40 partially overlapping PCR fragments per individual, which is a time- and resource-consuming process. We have developed a high-throughput, accurate, fast, and cost-effective human MT DNA sequencing approach. In this setup we first generate long-range PCR products for two partially overlapping 7.7 and 9.2 kb MT DNA-specific amplicons, add sample-specific barcodes, and sequence these on the PacBio RSII system to obtain full-length MT DNA sequences for genotyping/haplotyping purposes.
