YeastSeq – Nanopore Yeast Genome Sequencing
Obtain complete yeast genomes with high-quality annotations — fast and reliable.
Ideal for de novo assembly from clonal yeast populations using Oxford Nanopore’s long-read technology.

What You Can Achieve
- Generate high-quality, annotated genome assemblies
- Receive rich assembly metrics and visualization tools
- Sequence entire chromosomes without PCR-induced artifacts
Hypothesis-free sequencing of complete, native yeast genomes
Bioinformatics Analysis
With YeastSeq, you receive all essential results for complete yeast genome characterization — clearly structured and ready to use:
- Assembled genome (.fasta) – high-quality de novo assembly from Nanopore reads
- Annotated genome (.gbk) – genome features annotated via NCBI’s PGAP pipeline
- Genome map (.pdf) – visual overview of contigs, gene density, and GC content
- Species identification report – results from three complementary methods (Kraken, ANI, BUSCO)
- Quality summary – coverage, completeness, and variant overview ensuring data reliability
Turnaround Time
- 10 business days with pre-extracted genomic DNA
- 15 business days with yeast cell DNA extraction
