how to compare methylomes

05-15-2013, 12:28 AM

Hi, I am new to bisulfite sequencing and am confronted with an experiment where I would have to compare methylation states for several samples, some of which are paired (i.e. same individual, different tissues).
After some reading I have found Bismark to do methylation analysis on a one-by-one sample basis, if I am not wrong. I think I will be using Bismark for detecting methylation in a per sample basis.

But my question is, can anyone provide some guidelines as to how to compare samples after detecting methylation hotspots and if it is possible to take into account the pairing issue? Also, any references I can look for would be great.

Thanks

Dave

In case it helps anyone, I found this article with one possible solution:

Advanced Sequencing Platforms Tackle Neuroscience’s Toughest Genomics Problems

by SEQadmin2

Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.
