Profiling DNA Methylation Using Bisulfite Sequencing (BS-Seq).
DNA cytosine methylation is one of the most abundant epigenetic marks found in the plant nuclear genome. Bisulfite sequencing (BS-Seq) is the method of choice for profiling DNA cytosine methylation genome-wide at a single nucleotide resolution. The basis of this technique is that the unmethylated cytosine can be deaminated to uracil by sodium bisulfite, while the methylated cytosine is resistan...
متن کاملBS-virus-finder: virus integration calling using bisulfite sequencing data
Background DNA methylation plays a key role in the regulation of gene expression and carcinogenesis. Bisulfite sequencing studies mainly focus on calling single nucleotide polymorphism, different methylation region, and find allele-specific DNA methylation. Until now, only a few software tools have focused on virus integration using bisulfite sequencing data. Findings We have developed a new ...
متن کاملWALT: fast and accurate read mapping for bisulfite sequencing
Whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS) has emerged as the gold-standard technique in genome-scale studies of DNA methylation. Mapping reads from WGBS requires unique considerations that make the process more time-consuming than in other sequencing applications. Typical WGBS data sets contain several hundred million reads, adding to this analysis challenge. We present the WALT tool for mapping...
متن کاملAssessment of RainDrop BS-seq as a method for large-scale, targeted bisulfite sequencing
We present a systematic assessment of RainDrop BS-seq, a novel method for large-scale, targeted bisulfite sequencing using microdroplet-based PCR amplification coupled with next-generation sequencing. We compared DNA methylation levels at 498 target loci (1001 PCR amplicons) in human whole blood, osteosarcoma cells and an archived tumor tissue sample. We assessed the ability of RainDrop BS-seq ...
متن کاملFast and sensitive mapping of bisulfite-treated sequencing data
MOTIVATION Cytosine DNA methylation is one of the major epigenetic modifications and influences gene expression, developmental processes, X-chromosome inactivation, and genomic imprinting. Aberrant methylation is furthermore known to be associated with several diseases including cancer. The gold standard to determine DNA methylation on genome-wide scales is 'bisulfite sequencing': DNA fragments...
