Abstract

See full text

The invention provides a method for sequencing each polynucleotide of a population by using an oligonucleotide tag assigned to each such polynucleotide for transfering sequence information to a tag complement located on a spatially addressable array of such complements. That is, a unique tag is attached to each polynucleotide of a population which can be copied and used to shuttle sequence information to its complement at a fixed position on an array of such complements. After a tag hybridizes with its complement, a signal is generated that is indicative of the transferred sequence information. Sequences of the tagged polynucleotides are determined by repeated cycles of information transfer and signal detection at the positions of the corresponding tag complements.
