The mutations cannot be confirmed by both VF and VR reads. Questionable - The part's sample appears correct with one or two possible mutations. (Quality of read may be poor One read may show an error, while the other read cannot confirm it) An error may be present, but cannot be determined. Partially Confirmed - The prefix and suffix is correct. The part's sample is visibly correct, however due to the limited length of the sequencing reads, the middle of the sample is not covered well or at all. Long Part - The prefix and suffix is correct. The part's sample matches the part's documented sequence. When possible we also leave comments in regards to the part's status.Ĭonfirmed - The prefix and suffix is correct. Once a part has been re-evaluated by us or another user, a is added its qualitative value.
We manually reevaluate "Inconsistent" sequences to see if the result was simply a software issue rather than the actual sequence being incorrect. This will take you to the Sequence Analysis page for your part. If so, click on the Sequencing link, right beside the part's Sequence result. To see if a part's sample has sequencing results, you can click the "Get This Part" link at the top of the page, and find if a part's sample/location has QC results.
If you have any suggestions please send an email to hq AT igem DOT org. Note: We are continuously looking to improve the Registry software and our sequence analysis. Sequence results are then uploaded and compared to their target sequence (part's documented sequence) through Registry software, and are automatically assigned several qualitative values.
The VF2 and VR reads should be able to locate the BioBrick prefix and suffix, respectively (Ex.This ensures that the sequence reads will be able to read the BioBrick prefix and suffix as they move inward into the part sample. The VF2 and VR sites are located on BioBrick plasmids (just one of the reasons why you must send your parts in pSB1C3!).
Part samples are sequenced using the VF2 and VR primer sites on their plasmid backbones. Before using or requesting a part you should make your own in-depth analysis of the part sample's sequence results. We sequence all samples that we send out as part of the year's distribution. Sequencing is a major part of the QC methods we use at iGEM HQ.
