Article Grading: The article has been rated for quality and/or importance but has no comments yet. If appropriate, please review the article and then leave comments here to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the article and what work it will need.

The subsequent word's are my own and nobody else's. I re-wrote them after supposed copyright infringement. The encyclopedia will be missing a huge area of development without them. Use them or don't use them, either way i'm not bothered.

Pyrosequencing, a new method of DNA sequencing which involves the addition of phosphorylated dNTP's to the DNA polymerase reaction which emmit light upon binding to the DNA template. It makes DNA sequencing significantly faster than with the current chain termination method.

We do use them, look at Pyrosequencing/Temp. The text there will replace the text currently at Pyrosequencing as soon as that article is deleted completely. Sorry for that inconvenience, this is necessary because otherwise, the copyrighted text will remain visible via the articles history. I already wrote a welcome message to you at your previous ip's talk page, but obviously you didn't see it. So again: Welcome here, it's nice to have a knowledged molecular biologist here :)))) . Please do not feel put off wikipedia, you'll soon get used to our customs if you read some of the guidelines and keep editing. If you have questions, leave a message at my talk page.

I strongly suggest you get a user name. It's free, easy and anonymous: Then it'll be easier to communicate with you politely and efficiently.

Again:welcome!

Did you mean "emmit" light or "emit" light? — RJH 19:50, 9 Feb 2005 (UTC)

I edited this article to try and make it more comprehensible for the average reader. Is it alright?

It's definitely all right. As Wikipedia says, Be Bold! This page has needed work for a while. I'll get around to helping out one of these days. Spin2cool 18:32, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

After reading the introduction I feel that the 454 should only be mentioned later under recent advantages. This way it appears that 454 is the only way pyrosequencing is applied. In addition, it is a bit of a repetition.CharonZ 10:06, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] I'm not exactly an expert, but this article seems fine to me

Remove the 'article needs an expert' tag? Its a garbage tag anyway if you ask me. I am a graduate in Biochemistry, and the article reads fine to me. (I didn't go into the details in detail). --Dan|(talk) 14:59, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

Agreed. The template has been there for a year and the article seems fine to me as a regular user of the method, I'm removing it. If anyone has any ideas for improvement (other than the intro which I might rewrite myself), please tell us. AstarothCY (talk) 16:28, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Too obscure??

The article is clear, I believe it can be easily understood by an undergrad in life science and pyrosequencing is not high school stuff. I personally would remove the parenthesis after DNA sequencing which is plain silly: evryone knows what DNA sequencing is as they sequenced the human genome! --Squidonius (talk) 17:29, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
