High resolution profiling of human exon methylation by liquid hybridization capture-based bisulfite sequencing

Description :

Abstract

Background

DNA methylation plays important roles in gene regulation during both normal developmental and disease states. In the past decade, a number of methods have been developed and applied to characterize the genome-wide distribution of DNA methylation. Most of these me...

Comprehensive evaluation of SNP identification with the Restriction Enzyme-based Reduced Representation Library (RRL) method

Description :

Abstract

Background

Restriction Enzyme-based Reduced Representation Library (RRL) method represents a relatively feasible and flexible strategy used for Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) identification in different species. It has remarkable advantage of reducing the complexity o...

An improved method for genome wide DNA methylation profiling correlated to transcription and genomic instability in two breast cancer cell lines

Description :

Abstract

Background

DNA methylation is a widely studied epigenetic mechanism known to correlate with gene repression and genomic stability. Development of sensitive methods for global detection of DNA methylation events is of particular importance.

Results

We here desc...

Sequencing bias: comparison of different protocols of MicroRNA library construction

Description :

Abstract

Background

MicroRNAs(miRNAs) are 18-25 nt small RNAs playing critical roles in many biological processes. The majority of known miRNAs were discovered by conventional cloning and a Sanger sequencing approach. The next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies enable in-depth...

Double restriction-enzyme digestion improves the coverage and accuracy of genome-wide CpG methylation profiling by reduced representation bisulfite sequencing

Description :

Abstract

Background

Reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (RRBS) was developed to measure DNA methylation of high-CG regions at single base-pair resolution, and has been widely used because of its minimal DNA requirements and cost efficacy; however, the CpG coverage of genomic...

Deep RNA sequencing at single base-pair resolution reveals high complexity of the rice transcriptome

Description : Understanding the dynamics of eukaryotic transcriptome is essential for studying the complexity of transcriptional regulation and its impact on phenotype. However, comprehensive studies of transcriptomes at single base resolution are rare, even for modern organisms, and lacking for rice. Here, we pr...

High-Resolution Mapping of Genotype-Phenotype Relationships in Cri du Chat Syndrome Using Array Comparative Genomic Hybridization

Description : We have used array comparative genomic hybridization to map DNA copy–number changes in 94 patients with cri du chat syndrome who had been carefully evaluated for the presence of the characteristic cry, speech delay, facial dysmorphology, and level of mental retardation (MR). Most subjects had simple...
