Project description:We used the nanopore Cas9 targeted sequencing (nCATS) strategy to specifically sequence 125 L1HS-containing loci in parallel and measure their DNA methylation levels using nanopore long-read sequencing. Each targeted locus is sequenced at high coverage (~45X) with unambiguously mapped reads spanning the entire L1 element, as well as its flanking sequences over several kilobases. The genome-wide profile of L1 methylation was also assessed by bs-ATLAS-seq in the same cell lines (E-MTAB-10895).
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:We used bs-ATLAS-seq to comprehensively map the genomic location and assess the DNA methylation status of human full-length LINE-1 elements (L1) in the genome of 2102Ep cells (E-MTAB-10895). We also achieved targeted nanopore sequencing to assay DNA methylation over a subset of loci (E-MTAB-12247). To further study the link between L1 DNA methylation and expression, we performed, in the same cell line, RNA-seq (E-MTAB-12246), as well as YY1 and H3K4me3 ChIP-seq (this dataset).
Project description:The delta smelt (Hypomesus transpacificus) is a pelagic fish species endemic to the Sacramento-San Joaquin Estuary in Northern California, listed as endangered under both the USA Federal and Californian State Endangered Species Acts and acts as an indicator of ecosystem health in its habitat range. Interrogative tools are required to successfully monitor effects of contaminants upon the delta smelt, and to research potential causes of population decline in this species. We used microarray technology to investigate genome-wide effects in 47-day old larvae after a 7-day exposure to ambient water samples from the Sacramento River at a monitoring field station (Hood) situated 8 miles downstream of the Sacramento regional Wastewater Treatment Plant. Genomic assessments were carried out on surviving organisms and contrasted to laboratory controls.
