Genome Sequencing Procedure

 

1) Take small amount of blood from your body or spit saliva to a test tube.
2) Do sequencing after amplifying the amount of genetic material (i.e., your genome parts) using re-sequencing equipments.
3) Map the sequences to a reference genome and assemble all the genetic parts of your genome 
4) Store the information in such a way that bioinformaists can analyze hundreds of aspects of your genome.
5) Applying bioinformatics software to find interesting things such as relatedness, geneology, disease susceptability, and visualizing the whole genome.
6) Finding critical information on yourself as a biological being.
