Project description:We present scNanoATAC-seq (Single-cell Assay for Transposase Accessible Chromatin by Oxford Nanopore Technologies Sequencing), an effective method for simultaneous detection of chromatin accessibility and genetic variation. Long fragments (about 4-5Kb) of single-cell ATAC-seq library were enriched and sequenced by Oxford Nanopore Technologies platform. Ends of long ATAC-seq fragments are regarded as chromatin accessibility signal in downstream analysis.

Project description:Long-read RNA sequencing is a powerful technology for transcriptomics, but low throughput and high cost pose challenges. Adaptive sampling, a feature of Oxford Nanopore Technologies, offers real-time enrichment by selectively ejecting non-target molecules. We evaluate adaptive sampling for human transcriptome analysis.
Project description:Transgenic plants carrying an estradiol-inducible ROS1-YFP construct (XVE:ROS1-YFP) were subjected to long-read sequencing (Oxford Nanopore Technologies) to assess the global impacts of ROS1 activity on the methylome of Arabidopsis thaliana (ecotype Col-0).
Project description:Whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS) is currently the gold standard for DNA methylation (5-methylcytosine, 5mC) profiling, however the destructive nature of sodium bisulfite results in DNA fragmentation and subsequent biases in sequencing data. Such issues have led to the development of bisulfite-free methods for 5mC detection. Nanopore sequencing is a long read non-destructive approach that directly analyzes DNA and RNA fragments in real time. Recently, computational tools have been developed that enable base-resolution detection of 5mC from Oxford Nanopore sequencing data. In this chapter we provide a detailed protocol for preparation, sequencing, read assembly and analysis of genome-wide 5mC using Nanopore sequencing technologies.
Project description:Purpose: To generate a reference long-read transcriptomic data set for use in developing new analysis pipelines and comparing their performance with existing methods. Synthetic “sequin” RNA standards (Hardwick et al. 2016) were sequenced using the Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) GridION platform.
Project description:Osteosarcoma is the most common primary bone cancer in children, adolescents and young adults. It is a rare cancer type. To comprehensively reveal the transcriptomic characteristics of osteosarcoma, we performed Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) long-read RNA-Seq of tumor and adjacent normal tissues from 23 patients with osteosarcoma.
Project description:This project aims to leverage Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) long-read RNA sequencing to achieve a comprehensive analysis of the human pancreatic cancer transcriptome. Traditional short-read sequencing methods often struggle with accurately reconstructing full-length transcripts and discerning complex splicing events due to their limited read lengths. In contrast, ONT's long-read sequencing can generate reads that span entire RNA molecules, facilitating precise identification of transcript isoforms, alternative splicing patterns, and poly(A) tail length. By applying this technology, we seek to enhance the annotation of the pancreatic cancer transcriptome, uncover novel transcripts, and gain deeper insights into gene expression dynamics. The findings from this study have the potential to advance our understanding of gene regulation and contribute to the development of novel therapeutic strategies.
