[DIYbio] Re: How might one get their genome sequenced, if they can't diy it?

23andMe covers a whopping *million* loci, not just 200. Are you certain the loci you're interested in aren't covered?

I have neither facilities nor sufficient laboratory know-how at present.  I had been under the impression that 23 and me, when they were in business, did this, but they only examine 200 loci.  Are there any outfits that will do an entire genome?  If not, anyone here willing to work as a hired gun?

Have modern methods rendered this relatively easy, or is it still a monumental undertaking, i.e. no way 23 and me could do it for the $99 they charge?  I actually don't need the entire genome.  I'm only interested in a handful of loci, just not the ones 23 and me examined.
