Project description:Aim: To facilitate wide-scale implementation of Illumina Mouse Methylation BeadChip (MMB) technology, array-based measurement of cytosine methylation was compared with the gold-standard assessment of DNA methylation by whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS). Methods: DNA methylation across two mouse strains (C57B6 and C3H) and both sexes was assessed using the MMB and compared with previously existing deep-coverage WGBS of mice of the same strain and sex. Results & conclusion: The findings demonstrated that 93.3-99.2% of sites had similar measurements of methylation across technologies and that differentially methylated cytosines and regions identified by each technology overlap and enrich for similar biological functions, suggesting that the MMB faithfully recapitulates the findings of WGBS.

Project description:We compared the global DNA methylation levels of hairless mouse epidermis using the Infinium Mouse Methylation BeadChip from Illumina and whole genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS). We also studied the effect of sample storage conditions by using fresh and fresh-frozen epidermis. The DNA methylation levels of xxx,xxx CpG sites covered by both the BeadChip and WGBS were compared. DNA methylation levels obtained with WGBS and the BeadChip were strongly correlated (Pearson correlation r = 0.984). We applied a threshold of 15 reads for the WGBS methylation analysis. Even at a threshold of 10 reads, we observed no substantial difference in DNA methylation levels compared with that obtained with the BeadChip. The DNA methylation levels from the fresh and the fresh-frozen samples were strongly correlated when analysed with both the BeadChip (r = 0.996) and WGBS (r = 0.994). We conclude that the two methods of analysis generally work equally well for studies of DNA methylation of mouse epidermis and find that fresh and fresh-frozen epidermis can generally be used equally well. The choice of method will depend on the specific study’s aims and the available resources in the laboratory.

Project description:We compared the global DNA methylation levels of hairless mouse epidermis using the recently released Infinium Mouse Methylation BeadChip from Illumina and whole genome bisulphite sequencing (WGBS). We also studied the effect of sample storage conditions by using fresh and fresh-frozen epidermis. The DNA methylation levels of 123,851 CpG sites covered by both the BeadChip and WGBS were compared. DNA methylation levels obtained with WGBS and the BeadChip were strongly correlated (Pearson correlation r = 0.984). We applied a threshold of 15 reads for the WGBS methylation analysis. Even at a threshold of 10 reads, we observed no substantial difference in DNA methylation levels compared with that obtained with the BeadChip. The DNA methylation levels from the fresh and the fresh-frozen samples were strongly correlated when analysed with both the BeadChip (r = 0.999) and WGBS (r = 0.994). We conclude that the two methods of analysis generally work equally well for studies of DNA methylation of mouse epidermis and find that fresh and fresh-frozen epidermis can generally be used equally well.

Project description:We systematically evaluated alternate strategies for WGBS studies, taking into account opportunites around library preparation methods, sequencing platforms and analysis pipeline optimization. We also assessed the performance and precision of the WGBS method relative to the methylation arrays, in an effort to provide data-driven recommendations for future WGBS studies, in particularly with respect to minimum coverage.

Project description:We performed a critical evaluation of the new Infinium MethylationEPIC BeadChip microarray. EPIC covers over 850,000 CpG sites, including >90% of the CpGs from the HumanMethylation450 (HM450) BeadChip and an additional 413,743 CpGs. Even though the additional probes improve the coverage of regulatory elements, including 58% of FANTOM5 enhancers, only 7% distal and 27% proximal ENCODE regulatory elements are represented. Detailed comparisons of regulatory elements from EPIC and whole-genome bisulphite sequencing data (WGBS) show that a single EPIC probe is not always informative for those distal regulatory elements showing variable methylation across the region. However, overall data from the EPIC array at single loci are highly reproducible across technical and biological replicates and demonstrate high correlation with HM450 and WGBS data. We show that the HM450 and EPIC arrays distinguish differentially methylated probes, but the absolute agreement depends on the threshold set for each platform.

Project description:This data was generated by ENCODE. If you have questions about the data, contact the submitting laboratory directly (). If you have questions about the Genome Browser track associated with this data, contact ENCODE (mailto:genome@soe.ucsc.edu). This track was produced as part of the ENCODE project. It reports the percentage of DNA molecules that exhibit cytosine methylation. In general, DNA methylation within a gene's promoter is associated with gene silencing, and DNA methylation within the exons and introns of a gene is associated with gene expression. Proper regulation of DNA methylation is essential during development and aberrant DNA methylation is a hallmark of cancer. DNA methylation status was assayed with Whole Genome Bisulfite Sequencing (WGBS). Genomic DNA was sheared by sonication, end-repaired and then ligated to methylated sequencing adapters. The library fragments were treated with sodium bisulfite and amplified by PCR to convert every unmethylated cytosine to a thymine while leaving methylated cytosines intact. The sequenced fragments were aligned to a bisulfite-converted reference genome. For each assayed cytosine, the number of sequencing reads covering that C and the percentage of those reads that were methylated were reported. For data usage terms and conditions, please refer to http://www.genome.gov/27528022 and http://www.genome.gov/Pages/Research/ENCODE/ENCODEDataReleasePolicyFinal2008.pdf DNA methylation at cytosines across the genome was assayed with Whole Genome Bisulfite Sequencing (WGBS). WGBS was performed on cell lines grown by ENCODE production groups. WGBS was carried out by the Myers production group at the HudsonAlpha Institute for Biotechnology. Isolation of Genomic DNA: Genomic DNA was isolated from each cell line using the QIAGEN DNeasy Blood & Tissue Kit according to the instructions provided by the manufacturer. DNA concentrations for each genomic DNA preparation were determined using fluorescent DNA-binding dye and a fluorometer (Invitrogen Quant-iT dsDNA High Sensitivity Kit and Qubit Fluorometer). Typically, 2 µg of genomic DNA is used to make WGBS libraries. WGBS Library Construction and Sequencing: WGBS library construction started with sonication of genomic DNA on a Covaris S2 instrument. Sheared ends were then repaired and blunted with DNA polymerase I, T4 DNA polymerase and T4 polynucleotide kinase in the presence of dATP, dGTP and dTTP. After end repair, Klenow exo- DNA Polymerase was used to add an adenosine as a 3' overhang. Next, a methylated version of the Illumina paired-end adapters was ligated onto the DNA. Adapter-ligated 400 bp genomic DNA fragments were selected using a 2% agarose SizeSelect E-gel. The selected adapter-ligated fragments were treated with sodium bisulfite using the Zymo Research EZ DNA Methylation Gold Kit, which converts unmethylated cytosines to uracils and leaves methylated cytosines unchanged. Bisulfite-treated DNA was amplified in a final PCR reaction which was optimized to uniformly amplify diverse fragment sizes and sequence contexts in the same reaction. During this final PCR reaction, uracils were copied as thymines, resulting in a thymine in the PCR products wherever an unmethylated cytosine existed in the genomic DNA. These libraries were then sequenced with an Illumina HiSeq 2000 according to the manufacturer's recommendations as paired-end 50 bp reads. Libraries were sequenced to a depth of 600 million aligned reads. Data Analysis: To analyze the sequence data, Bismark (Krueger and Andrews, 2011) was used to align sequences reads. Generally, each read went through a conversion of Cs to Ts and was then aligned to fully converted plus and minus strands of the hg19 build of the human genome. A few custom refinements were made to the Bismark program. Since these libraries were made in a directional orientation with the first read always being C-poor, we skipped unnecessary alignments to impossible orientations. We also implemented a more stringent uniqueness filter, only allowing reads that have one acceptable alignment (based on default Bowtie parameters) across both strands. Once reads were aligned, the percent methylation was calculated for each cytosine using the original sequence reads. The percent methylation and number of reads is reported for each CpG in the wgEncodeHaibMethylWgbsXXXXCpg.bigBed file and for each non CpG cytosine in the wgEncodeHaibMethylWgbsXXXXNoncpg.bigBed file.
