Roche “454” DNA Sequencing Images adapted from Teri Rambo Mueller Roche Diagnostics Corporation
Adaptor B Adaptor A Fluorescent Label
Adaptor allows single DNA moleculeto bind bead contained in drop of emulsion. emulsion PCR
Wells are picoliter reaction vessels. Wells have titanium coating. Each well holds 1 bead. Multiple optical fibers fused in array. Light-producing reactions in wells measured by CCD camera.

Polymerase adds nucleotide (dATP) • Pyrophosphate is released (PPi) • Sulfurylase creates ATP from PPi • Luciferase hydrolyses ATP and uses luciferin to make light DNA Bead with clonally amplified fragments
