Abstract

The invention relates to a method of sequencing target DNA in which said DNA is provided in double stranded form immobilized on a solid support via one terminus of one of the two strands thereof and is then subjected to strand separation whereby the unattached strand is removed prior to sequencing the immobilized strand. The target DNA, e.g genomic DNA, may initially be amplified by the PCR method using at least one oligonucleotide primer which is either attached to a solid support or carries means for attachment to a solid support.
