Problems solved by technology

Regardless of the input level of library construction, bisulfite treatment is required, and bisulfite treatment can damage DNA, resulting in fragmentation, loss and bias
Although it is possible to build a library from a small amount to the level of the initial amount of a single cell, it is damaged, the GC coverage is low, and the uniformity is poor.
[0004] For the methylation library construction based on the enzymatic method, the existing technology can only realize the conventional initial amount of library construction, and the initial amount of DNA needs to reach more than 10ng

Embodiment 1

[0055] Embodiment 1, establishment of method

[0056] 1. Oxidative deamination treatment

[0057] Genomic DNA was taken for oxidative deamination treatment.

[0058] Oxidative deamination method: use EM-seq Conversion Module Kit and operate according to the kit instructions. EM-seq Conversion Module Kit, full name Enzymatic Methyl-seqConversion Module, NEB Corporation, Cat. No. #E7125. Internal control DNA is included in the EM-seq Conversion Module Kit. EM-seq Conversion Module Kit uses TET2 (dioxygenase) for oxidation treatment and APOBEC (cytosine deaminase) for deamination treatment to deaminate unmethylated cytosine C to uracil U.

Abstract

The invention discloses a novel low-initial-quantity DNA methylation library building method. The invention provides a method for preparing a methylation sequencing library, which sequentially comprises the following steps of: (1) taking genome DNA, and carrying out oxidative deamination treatment; (2) carrying out whole genome amplification; and (3) constructing a sequencing library. In the step (1), the oxidative deamination treatment is carried out by adopting an enzyme chemical method, the oxidation treatment is carried out by adopting dioxygenase (TET2), and the deamination treatment is carried out by adopting cytosine deaminase (APOBEC). The purpose of whole genome amplification is to convert DNA at an ng level into DNA at a mu g level. The method provided by the invention has the following beneficial effects: genome DNA methylation treatment with extremely low initial quantity can be realized, and the initial quantity can be as low as a single cell level; the operation steps are simple; the damage to DNA is minimum; and the phenomena of unbalanced GC base distribution, low coverage, high duplication rate and the like of the existing trace methylation library establishment are improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a novel low-initial DNA methylation library construction method. Background technique [0002] DNA methylation of the fifth carbon of cytosine is a stable epigenetic modification that occurs in many species ranging from bacteria to higher eukaryotes. This modification is what we often call DNA methylation modification, which plays a role in transcriptional regulation during embryonic development, such as genomic imprinting, transposon silencing, and also plays an important role in stem cell differentiation and X chromosome inactivation role. Moreover, changes in DNA methylation levels were also found in tumor research to be associated with tumor progression. Therefore, the detection of DNA methylation provides an important means for the study of the physiological functions of organisms. [0003] Methylation library sequencing based on the principle of bisulfite has become the gold standard for DNA methylation analysis. Afte...
