ASTA-Seq (Allele-Specific Targeted Amplicon Sequencing)
Description
ASTA-Seq (Allele-Specific Targeted Amplicon Sequencing) is an automatical pipeline implemented in two Perl scripts to extract and summarize information from FASTQ reads containing information about the allele-specific (hydroxy)methylation status of regions surrounding several Differentially (hydroxy)Methylated CpGs in X-reactivating gene promoters by DNA methylation arrays. Regions to be analyzed were selected to include species-specific SNPs and at least one D(h)MP while maintaining an amplicon size of 200-500 bp, and escapee gene controls were included as well. Paired oxidative Bisulfite (OxBS) and the mock-oxidation reaction (Bisulfite, BS) treated DNA from day 5 reprogramming samples were used as templates for a two-step PCR amplification protocol before library preparation for high-throughput sequencing.
