DNA Sequencing DNA sequencing is the process of figuring out the exact order of the building blocks, called nucleotides, in a DNA molecule. This powerful technology allows scientists to "read" the genetic code of any living thing, from tiny viruses to humans, unlocking secrets about life, health, and evolution.
