RNA-seq

RNA-seq

RNA sequencing, or RNA-Seq, is a high-throughput sequencing technology used to study the transcriptome of a cell. Transcriptomics helps to interpret the functional elements of a genome and identify the molecular constituents of an organism. Additionally, it also helps in understanding the development of an organism and the occurrence of diseases.
Before the discovery of RNA-seq, microarray-based methods and Sanger sequencing were used for transcriptome analysis. However, while microarray-based...

Next-generation Sequencing

Next-generation Sequencing

The first human genome sequencing project cost $2.7 billion and was declared complete in 2003, after 15 years of international cooperation and collaboration between several research teams and funding agencies. Today, with the advent of next-generation sequencing technologies, the cost and time of sequencing a human genome have dropped over 100 fold.
Next-Generation Sequencing Methods
Although all next-generation methods use different technologies, they all share a set of standard features.

Maxam-Gilbert Sequencing

Maxam-Gilbert Sequencing

In the same year as the discovery of the Sanger sequencing method, another group of scientists, Allan Maxam and Walter Gilbert, demonstrated their chemical-cleavage method for DNA sequencing. The Maxam-Gilbert method relies on using different chemicals that can cleave the DNA sequence at specific sites, the separation of resulting DNA fragments of variable size using electrophoresis, and deciphering the DNA sequence from the resulting gel bands.
Challenges of the Maxam-Gilbert Method

Area of Science:

Genomics
Bioinformatics
Epigenetics

Background:

Chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-seq) generates large, genome-wide datasets on histone modifications and transcription factor occupancy.
Interpreting these gigabyte-scale ChIP-seq data requires efficient bioinformatics tools, which are often a bottleneck for biological interpretation.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop an integrated and portable platform, seqMINER, for efficient interpretation of multiple ChIP-seq datasets.
To enable qualitative and quantitative analysis, comparison, and integration of diverse genome-wide data.

Main Methods:

Developed seqMINER, a user-friendly bioinformatics platform optimized for handling multiple genome-wide datasets.
Implemented data classification methods and multiple graphical representations for pattern visualization and modeling.
Applied seqMINER to analyze genome-wide chromatin modification data in mouse embryonic stem cells.

Main Results:

seqMINER efficiently handles and integrates multiple ChIP-seq datasets, providing both qualitative and quantitative insights.
The platform supports complex experimental designs and offers various data classification and visualization tools.
Comprehensive analysis of mouse embryonic stem cell epigenetics revealed global landscape changes during differentiation.

Conclusions:

seqMINER significantly enhances the efficiency of ChIP-seq data interpretation for biologists.
The platform facilitates a deeper understanding of epigenetic regulation and cellular processes.
seqMINER is a valuable tool for exploring genome-wide epigenetic landscapes and their dynamic changes.
