Project description:During development, the inherited DNA methylation patterns from the parental gametes needs to be remodeled into a state compatible with embryonic pluripotency. In Zebrafish, this remodeling is achieved by the maternal methylome becoming hypomethylated to match the paternal methylome. However, how this is achieved in medaka (another teleost fish) is currently not known. Moreover, how DNA methylation remodeling is impacted in hybrid organisms, and the effects this may have on their development, is also not known. Here we address these questions by generation whole genome bisulfite sequencing data for zebrafish, medaka and zebrafish medaka embryos.
Project description:Genomic DNA from 39 recq4 Col x Ler F2 individuals was extracted using the CTAB method. Equal amounts of DNA from these 39 plants were pooled and nine micrograms of gDNA from each pool was used to generate Nanopore sequencing libraries with the Ligation Sequencing Kit V14 (Nanopore, SQK-LSK114). The libraries were sequenced independently using PromethION (BGI, Hong Kong).
Project description:Genomic DNA from 55 wild type Col x Ler F2 individuals was extracted using the CTAB method. Equal amounts of DNA from these 55 plants were pooled into two groups (pool 1 = 4 plants; pool 2 = 51 plants), and nine micrograms of gDNA from each pool was used to generate Nanopore sequencing libraries with the Ligation Sequencing Kit V14 (Nanopore, SQK-LSK114). The libraries were sequenced independently using PromethION (BGI, Hong Kong).
Project description:Affymetrix OncoScan data from primary and metastatic intracranial lesions collected for the validation of our intraoperative brain tumor classification with nanopore sequencing. All samples were processed from FFPE by our clinical lab using the standard protocol for clinical samples.
Project description:As part of the PhenoGen Project (http://phenogen.org), RNA-Seq data has been collected from whole brain samples of two inbred strains that represent the parental strains from the HXB/BXH recombinant inbred panel, which is part of the Hybrid Rat Diversity Panel. Processed data were generated as part of manuscript, Aptardi predicts polyadenylation sites in sample-specific transcriptomes using high throughput RNA sequencing and DNA sequence.
Project description:We used targeted long-read Oxford Nanopore Technologies sequencing enriching for a panel of 1036 pharmacogenes extracted from the PharmGKB database. The enrichment was performed using ONT's adaptive sampling feature, enabling in silico enrichment without physically capturing the fragments of interest using hybridization.
Project description:Many human characteristics, including susceptibility to disease, are determined genetically. An unexplored alternative to such genetic determination concerns epigenetic mechanisms such as DNA methylation. CpG islands (CGIs) are generally constitutively hypomethylated, however there are circumstances in which they become heavily methylated and, when coincident with a gene promoter, this invariably causes transcriptional silencing. CGI methylation occurs in normal tissues during processes such as X-inactivation, but abnormal patterns of methylation have also been implicated in disease. The vast majority of evidence relates to cancer, where silencing of multiple genes in this way appears to be a causal contributor to the cancer state. To address the role and extent of CGI methylation in ‘normal’ and diseased cells we applied MBD-affinity purification in conjunction with next generation sequencing in a panel of human brain autopsy samples. These samples represent a panel of individuals as well as specific brain regions and neurological pathologies.
