Subjects Normal breast and tumor samples were obtained with the written informed consent from donors and appropriate approval from local ethical committees, with the detailed information described in the respective original publications: normal tissue9, METABRIC14, TCGA35. Differential allelic expression analysis DNA and total RNA from 64 samples of normal breast…

RPKM, how to normalize for library size 1 Hi everybody! I’m working on several metagenomes (so not trascriptomes), and I mapped high quality reads to a database made of nucleotide sequences through bowtie2. I want to convert raw mapping counts of each gene in RPKM. I know this method might…

Introduction Primary testicular diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (PT-DLBCL) is a rare and aggressive form of mature B-cell lymphoma.1–3 PT-DLBCL was the most common type of testicular tumor in men aged over 60 and characterized by painless uni- or bilateral testicular masses with infrequent constitutional symptoms.4–6 PT-DLBCL shows significant extranodal tropism,…

Significance The plant-specific H3K27me1 methyltransferases ATXR5 and ATXR6 play integral roles connecting epigenetic silencing with genomic stability. However, how H3K27me1 relates to these processes is poorly understood. In this study, we performed a comprehensive transcriptome analysis of tissue- and ploidy-specific expression in a hypomorphic atxr5/6 mutant and revealed that the…

Strange speed up in GATK LeftAlignIndels 1 Hi! I noticed a strange thing, I have been running a DNA-seq pipeline like this: reads -> bwa-mem2 -> picard SortSam -> picard MergeSamFiles -> picard MarkDuplicates -> gatk LeftAlignIndels … gatk LeftAlignIndels has always taken around 4 hours to complete with the…

Organoid culture of small intestinal cells and lentiviral transduction C57BL/6J mice and BALB/cAnu/nu immune-deficient nude mice were purchased from CLEA Japan (Tokyo, Japan). The small intestine was harvested from wild-type male C57BL/6J mice at 3–5 weeks of age (Additional file 1: Figure S9A). Crypts were purified and dissociated into single cells,…

Abstract Despite the tremendous increase in omics data generated by modern sequencing technologies, their analysis can be tricky and often requires substantial expertise in bioinformatics. To address this concern, we have developed a user-friendly pipeline to analyze (cancer) genomic data that takes in raw sequencing data (FASTQ format) as input…

Researchers in the US and France report on a “rapid identification of methylase specificity” sequencing (RIMS-seq) approach for characterizing 5-methylcytosine methylation-related methylase enzyme specificity in concert with DNA sequencing in bacterial genomes. After validating the sequencing strategy, the team used RIMS-seq to assess synthetic and real gut microbial communities or…
