To develop a reliable method for whole genome analysis of DNA methylation.
MATERIALS & METHODS: Genome-scale analysis of DNA methylation includes affinity-based approaches such as enrichment using methyl-CpG-binding proteins. One of these methods, the methylated-CpG island recovery assay (MIRA), is based on the high affinity of the MBD2b-MBD3L1 complex for CpG-methylated DNA. Here we provide a detailed description of MIRA and combine it with next generation sequencing platforms (MIRA-seq).
We assessed the performance of MIRA-seq and compared the data with whole genome bisulfite sequencing.
MIRA-seq is a reliable, genome-scale DNA methylation analysis platform for scoring DNA methylation differences at CpG-rich genomic regions. The method is not limited by primer or probe design and is cost effective.
开发一种可靠的全基因组DNA甲基化分析方法。
DNA甲基化的基因组规模分析包括基于亲和力的方法,如使用甲基化CpG结合蛋白进行富集。其中一种方法,甲基化CpG岛回收分析(MIRA),基于MBD2b-MBD3L1复合物对CpG甲基化DNA的高亲和力。在此,我们详细描述了MIRA,并将其与新一代测序平台相结合(MIRA-seq)。
我们评估了MIRA-seq的性能,并将数据与全基因组亚硫酸氢盐测序进行了比较。
MIRA-seq是一个可靠的基因组规模DNA甲基化分析平台,用于对富含CpG的基因组区域的DNA甲基化差异进行评分。该方法不受引物或探针设计的限制,且具有成本效益。
