Overview
Barcode design
- Each barcode has N number of digits, each digit can have M colors. We start with N=7 and M=4.
- To better resolve the barcodes, we require that two adjacent digits have different color. Therefore, the total number of possible barcodes is M*(M-1)^(N-1), which is 8748 when N=7 and M=4.
- The size of a digit depends on how well we can resolve a feature optically. Based on existing publications, this could be anywhere between 10-400kb.
- There could be a spacer between digits, but not necessary as long as two adjacent digits have different colors.
- We do need a spacer between two adjacent barcodes in order to know where the first digit is. As a start, the spacer can be twice as large as a digit.
- Here is an estimation of number of barcodes and probes needed for the entire human genome.
Digit Size | # probes/digit | Digits/barcode | # barcodes | Barcode size | Total region covered | # probes needed for human genome |
