ABSTRACT:
Disclosed herein is a method and apparatus for determining the base sequence of a nucleic acid molecule by cleaving a nucleic acid molecule of interest while controlling the cleavage site, measuring the change in mass which occurs in the nucleic acid molecule after the cleavage step, and acquiring the base information of the cleaved nucleic acid molecule from the data about the change in mass. The method and apparatus are based on the principle which is entirely different from that used for the conventional technique.
