Project description:We used whole bodies of four different adult fire ant morphs (alate queens, workers, haploid males, and diploid males) from a single polygyne colony to generate single-base resolution DNA methylation maps. DNA was extracted from whole bodies of individual males, individual queens, and pooled workers. Bisulfite conversion and sequencing was performed by Beijing Genomics Institute (Shenzhen, China). Unmethylated enterobacteria phage lambda DNA (GenBank accession: J02459.1) was added to each genomic DNA sample as a control for bisulfite conversion efficiency.
Project description:This observational, prospective, multicentric study is being conducted to record the prevalence of KRAS mutations in the Argentine mCRC population.
