摘要: Bisulfite sequencing is a valuable tool for mapping the position of 5-methylcytosine in genome at single base resolution. However, associated chemical treatment causes strand scission, which depletes number sequenceable DNA fragments library and thus necessitates PCR amplification. The AT-rich nature generated from bisulfite adversely affects this amplification, resulting introduction major biases that can confound methylation analysis. Here, we report method enables more accurate analysis, by rebuilding bisulfite-damaged components library. This recovery after (ReBuilT) approach PCR-free low nanogram quantities genomic DNA. We apply ReBuilT first whole methylome analysis highly Plasmodium berghei. Side-by-side comparison to commercial protocol involving amplification demonstrates substantial improvement uniformity coverage reduction sequence context bias. Our will be widely applicable quantitative even technically challenging genomes, where limited sample available.
