Abstract

Methods for obtaining nucleic acid sequence information including the steps of (a) providing a first sequencing reagent to a target nucleic acid in the presence of a polymerase, wherein the first sequencing reagent includes at least two different nucleotide monomers and no more than three nucleotide monomers, wherein the nucleotide monomers are simultaneously in the presence of the target nucleic acid, (b) providing a second sequencing reagent to the target nucleic acid, wherein the second sequencing reagent comprises one or more nucleotide monomers, at least one of the one or more nucleotide monomers being different from the nucleotide monomers present in the first sequencing reagent, and wherein the second sequencing reagent is provided subsequent to providing the first sequencing reagent, and optionally (c) repeating (a) and (b) for said target nucleic acid, whereby sequence information for at least a portion of the target nucleic acid is obtained.
