DMEAS: DNA methylation entropy analysis software
SUMMARY DMEAS is the first user-friendly tool dedicated to analyze the distribution of DNA methylation patterns for the quantification of epigenetic heterogeneity. It supports the analysis of both locus-specific and genome-wide bisulfite sequencing data. DMEAS progressively scans the mapping results of bisulfite sequencing reads to extract DNA methylation patterns for contiguous CpG dinucleotid...
متن کاملdna-directed methylation analysis methodology
epigenetics alterations, especially dna methylation, play a critical role in control of gene expressions. abnormal patterns of methylation are observed in early-stages of many cancers. therefore, methylation analysis is useful in primary detection of tumors. advances knowledge about the functional role of aberrant epigenetic modifications as potential biomarkers for cancer, have attracted consi...
متن کاملDNA Methylation Analysis
Epigenetic mechanisms play important roles during normal development1, aging2, and a variety of disease conditions. Numerous studies have implicated aberrant methylation in the etiology of common human disease, including cancer, MS, diabetes, and schizophrenia3,4. Hypermethylation of CpG islands located in the promoter regions of tumor suppressor genes is firmly established as the most frequent...
متن کاملAnalysis of distribution of DNA methylation in kidney-renal-clear-cell-carcinoma specific genes using entropy
DNA Methylation is an epigenetic phenomenon in which methyl groups are added to the cytosines, thereby altering the physio-chemical properties of the DNA region and influencing gene expression. Aberrant DNA methylation in a set of genes or across the genome results in many epigenetic diseases including cancer. In this paper, we use entropy to analyze the extent and distribution of DNA methylati...
متن کاملDesign Software Failure Mode and Effect Analysis using Fuzzy TOPSIS Based on Fuzzy Entropy
One of the key pillars of any operating system is its proper software performance. Software failure can have dangerous effects and consequences and can lead to adverse and undesirable events in the design or use phases. The goal of this study is to identify and evaluate the most significant software risks based on the FMEA indices with respect to reduce the risk level by means of experts’ opini...
