Project description:Primary objectives: The primary objective is to investigate circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) via deep sequencing for mutation detection and by whole genome sequencing for copy number analyses before start (baseline) with regorafenib and at defined time points during administration of regorafenib for treatment efficacy in colorectal cancer patients in terms of overall survival (OS).

Project description:Genome-wide analysis of H3K4me3 modifications, Gata1 binding, and DNase I hypersensitivity sites in zebrafish adult red blood cells Zebrafish red cells from 10 adults were isolated for each ChIP-seq reaction. The red cells were cross-linked with formaldehyde for 20 min. DNA fragements bound by specific proteins were enriched by chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and analyzed by Solexa sequencing. A sample of whole cell extract (WCE) was sequenced and used as the background to determine enrichment. ChIP was performed using an antibody against total Gata1 and H3K4me3 (Millipore Cat. No. 17-614) as previously described in Lee et al 2006.
