Sequential deregulation of histone marks, chromatin accessibility and gene expression in response to PROTAC-induced degradation of ASH2L
Loss of ASH2L prevents cell proliferation We have studied the molecular and cellular consequences of Ash2l loss in mouse embryo fibroblasts (MEFs) with floxed Ash2l alleles and an inducible Cre-ER recombinase (iMEF-Ash2lfl/fl-Cre-ER). While the knockout of Ash2l was rapid, the downstream effects, including the decrease in promoter-associated H3K4me3, altered gene…

Visualize methylation status in Pacbio Hifi read
Visualize methylation status in Pacbio Hifi read 2 I want to know how to visualize methylation status in IGV. I tried to visualize by clicking color alignments by -> base modification (or bisulfite mode -> CG). But It shows only red colors and no blue colors in IGV. Please let…
3′ Single Cell RNA Seq Reads mapping to promoter region of gene
3′ Single Cell RNA Seq Reads mapping to promoter region of gene 0 Hi! I am trying to visualize my reads from a 3′ Single cell RNA seq run in IGV. I am using the bam file from the cell ranger output. For some reason, I am encountering a lot…
Reads in IGV are mostly in intron regions
Reads in IGV are mostly in intron regions 0 I was analyzing a published datasets related to Patch-seq: RNAs from soma or dendrites was sequenced. After visualizing the BAM files in IGV, it is weird to see that most of the reads fall into intron regions. I am wondering if…
Introduction to Bioinformatics Tools for Sequencing and Analysis of Large-Scale Genomic Data
Bioinformatics is a field that combines biology, computer science, and statistics to analyze and interpret biological data. With the advent of high-throughput sequencing technologies, the amount of genomic data generated has increased exponentially. This has led to the development of bioinformatics tools that can handle large-scale genomic data and provide…
How to discard alignments from SAM/BAM file that have mismatches
How to discard alignments from SAM/BAM file that have mismatches 0 Hi all, I have sequenced the mRNA of a heterologous library expressed in human cells using nanopore. Then I mapped the reads from the fastq files to the reference database of the library using the minimap. Then I filtered…
Immunotherapy implants turn brain tumors against themselves
Whether they’re in the brain, on the skin, or in the liver, solid tumors are difficult to treat. Because they arise from healthy cells that go haywire, every person’s tumor is different. This tumor heterogeneity means that there is often no “one size fits all” treatment, even for the same…
differential splicing between two groups for 5 genes
differential splicing between two groups for 5 genes 1 I have an experimental group where I observed the presence of a handful of genes (5 genes) that I was not expecting to see. To assess the validity, I look at the read alignments on IGV and the read phred scores…

Confirming intron length
Confirming intron length 1 Hi all, I have RNA-Seq data (ctrl vs kd) and performed a bunch of analyses. One of the analyses I performed was via rMATS tool to find possible retained introns. In the rMATS output, I do get coordinates for individual retained introns but I think depending…
Identify similarly mapped reads in BAM/SAM?
Identify similarly mapped reads in BAM/SAM? 1 I have a BAM (or SAM) file of reads mapped to a reference genome. I would like to identify which reads are mapped similarly/to approximately the same location, which reads might be “orthologs”. For example, when visualizing the BAM file in IGV, the…
Whole genome analysis for 163 gRNAs in Cas9-edited mice reveals minimal off-target activity
Allele design and guide selection For multi-exon genes, a critical region (one or more exons) was identified as shared among all annotated full-length transcripts whose removal was predicted to result in a frame-shift mutation and introduction of premature stop codon greater than 50-nt from the final splice junction increasing the…
