Bismark(SE)
Introduction
This pipeline detect methylation site in CpG, ChG and CHH context. And get the region that is obviously different methylation rate among two samples.
Input format | FASTQ(Illumina, IonTorrent, etc...) |
Library layout | For paired-end read only |
Species | Human(hg19) |
Execution time | About 6 hours. (3M paired-end reads[36bp+36bp]) x 2 samples |
Pipeline history
Bismarkでマッピングを行いメチル化サイトを同定し、SAMtoolsのmpileupを用いてメチル化サイトの集計をします。
さらにフィッシャーの正確確率検定(FET)による二群間比較を行い、レポートで結果を報告します。

Inputs
