How to combine data from Human Methylation 27 and 450 platforms?
I am studying the Kidney Renal Clear Cell Carcinoma (TCGA-KIRC) data set of TCGA. The DNA methylation datatype has 200 samples from Human Methylation 27 platform and 300 samples from Human Methylation 450 platform. These two platforms have methylation beta values for a common set of 25,978 CpG sites. Can I simply combine the samples from the two platforms using only the common set of 25,978 features?

The field of immunogenetics explores how genetic variations influence immune responses and susceptibility to disease. In a recent SEQanswers webinar, Oscar Rodriguez, Ph.D., Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Louisville, and Ruben Martínez Barricarte, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Medicine at Vanderbilt University, shared recent advancements in immunogenetics. This article discusses their research on genetic variation in antibody loci, antibody production processes,...11-06-2024, 07:24 PM -
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) are essential techniques for investigating the genome, transcriptome, and epigenome. In many cases, choosing the appropriate technique is straightforward, but in others, it can be more challenging to determine the most effective option. A simple distinction is that smaller, more focused projects are typically better suited for qPCR, while larger, more complex datasets benefit from NGS. However,...10-18-2024, 07:11 AM
