DNA sequence analysis

DNA sequence analysis involves examining the specific order of nucleotide bases (adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine) in an organism's genetic material. This process helps scientists identify genes, understand genetic functions, and detect variations or mutations. Techniques include sequencing, which reads the exact genetic code, and comparison with other sequences to find similarities or differences. DNA analysis is vital for research, medical diagnosis, personalized medicine, and understanding biological diversity, providing insights into how genes influence traits and health.
