Detection and measurement of PCR bias in quantitative methylation analysis of bisulphite-treated DNA.
Methylation analysis of individual cytosines in genomic DNA can be determined quantitatively by bisulphite treatment and PCR amplification of the target DNA sequence, followed by restriction enzyme digestion or sequencing. Methylated and unmethylated molecules, however, have different sequences after bisulphite conversion. For some sequences this can result in bias during the PCR amplification ...
متن کاملWGBSSuite: simulating whole-genome bisulphite sequencing data and benchmarking differential DNA methylation analysis tools
MOTIVATION As the number of studies looking at differences between DNA methylation increases, there is a growing demand to develop and benchmark statistical methods to analyse these data. To date no objective approach for the comparison of these methods has been developed and as such it remains difficult to assess which analysis tool is most appropriate for a given experiment. As a result, ther...
متن کاملMSRE-PCR for analysis of gene-specific DNA methylation
Abnormal DNA methylation is observed in certain promoters of neoplastic cells, although the likelihood of methylation for each individual promoter varies. Simultaneous analysis of many promoters in the same sample can allow use of statistical methods for identification of neoplasia. Here we describe an assay for such analysis, based on digestion of genomic DNA with methylation-sensitive restric...
متن کاملDNA methylation of developmental genes in pediatric medulloblastomas identified by denaturation analysis of methylation differences.
DNA methylation might have a significant role in preventing normal differentiation in pediatric cancers. We used a genomewide method for detecting regions of CpG methylation on the basis of the increased melting temperature of methylated DNA, termed denaturation analysis of methylation differences (DAMD). Using the DAMD assay, we find common regions of cancer-specific methylation changes in pri...
متن کاملOptimizing methodologies for PCR-based DNA methylation analysis.
Comprehensive analysis of DNA methylation patterns is critical for understanding the molecular basis of many human diseases. While hundreds of PCR-based DNA methylation studies are published every year, the selection and implementation of appropriate methods for these studies can be challenging for molecular genetics researchers not yet familiar with methylation analysis. Here we review the mos...
