  • Sequence Bias in Bisulphite Sequencing Mapped Reads

    Hello,

    I have created a post also in Biostars but the community did not have an answer to my post so I will try here. (here is the question in biostars https://www.biostars.org/p/259801/)

    I have performed with Bismark the M-Bias Plot and my reads looks as follow.




    as far as I am understanding the end of read 1 is showing a decrease in the CpG Methylation at the 3'end as well as the CHH total and CHG in the total call. The strange thing is the read 2 in which I can observe a drop Immediately after the first 5 nucleotides for all the type of of Methylation combination (CHH total, CHG total, CHH methylation etc..). How should I have to interpret this? To me it sounds like the read 2 look quite bad in therms of nucleotide composition, and only the CpG methylation bias is showing a good pattern. Does anyone has experienced a similar problem?

    In the bismark tutorial they clearly show that Read1 and Read2 have similar pattern (see here at page 16 https://www.bioinformatics.babraham....User_Guide.pdf )

    Any comment is really appreciated.
    Cheers

    Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
    by seqadmin


    Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...

    Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
    by seqadmin


    Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
