Folks: I am sorry for incomplete posting. I think our email system was not functioning properly.
So I will try again:

Sheryl:

We used the ABI's dGTP kit to sequence several DNA fragments with high
GC content (for example a row of 12 Cs) and we got the same results as the conventional BigDye
kit.
I tried several samples and didn't see any difference. I saw your data and they were great.
Is there any particular way that this kit should be handled in order to read through GC content?

Thanks
