Abstract

Aim: To develop a reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (RRBS) approach for rapid and affordable genome-wide DNA methylation analysis. Methods: We have selected restriction endonuclease XmaI to produce RRBS library fragments. After digestion and partial fill-in DNA fragments were ligated to barcoded adapters, bisulfite converted, size-selected, and sequenced on the Ion Torrent Personal Genome Machine. XmaI-RRBS results were compared with the previously published RRBS data. Results: We have developed an XmaI-RRBS method for rapid and affordable genome-wide DNA methylation analysis, with library preparation taking only 4 days and sequencing possible within 4 h. We have also addressed several challenges in order to further improve the RRBS technology. XmaI-RRBS may be performed on degraded DNA samples and is compatible with the bench-top next-generation sequencing machines.
