EpiDiverse Toolkit: a pipeline suite for the analysis of bisulfite sequencing data in ecological plant epigenetics
Link: https://academic.oup.com/nargab/arti...qab106/6426027
ABSTRACT
The expanding scope and scale of next generation sequencing experiments in ecological plant epigenetics brings new challenges for computational analysis. Existing tools built for model data may not address the needs of users looking to apply these techniques to non-model species, particularly on a population or community level. Here we present a toolkit suitable for plant ecologists working with whole genome bisulfite sequencing; it includes pipelines for mapping, the calling of methylation values and differential methylation between groups, epigenome-wide association studies, and a novel implementation for both variant calling and discriminating between genetic and epigenetic variation.

The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...-

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...-
