MBD-Chip Analysis Bioinformatics - Fish 546 Winter 2014
Overview Question: Is the oyster s response to estrogen (EE2) mediated by DNA methylation Approach: MBD-Chip Bioinformatics: R packages: Ringo, ChipPeakAnno Bedtools SQLshare DAVID
Array Design 3 x 720k design Methylation changes in response to EE2 Day 7 Control Pool: 3 females EE2 Pool: 3 females Input Pooled MBD (n=4) EE2: red cntrl: green EE2: green cntrl: red EE2: green cntrl: red
Microarray Data Processing Read Nimblegen files into R Remove control probes Loess normalize each array Smooth log2 ratio values by computing a running median Set a threshold for enriched regions Identify the overlap between replicates, and exclude regions where enrichment is present in control Evernote link
Next Steps: Functional annotation Further annotation of DMRs DAVID, - Conserved Domain BLAST Conserved Domain BLAST
