RRBS Service

Reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (RRBS) enables genome-scale DNA methylation analysis at the single nucleotide level in any vertebrate species. The assay benefits from the practical advantages of bisulfite sequencing while avoiding the cost of whole genome sequencing. By cutting the genome using the restriction MspI enzyme (CCGG target sites) followed by size selection, DNA is enriched to represent biologically relevant target CpG-rich regions including promoters and CpG islands. Our RRBS service makes this technology widely available and provides high coverage (up to 7 million CpGs detected in human samples).

TESTIMONIAL

We are very happy with the services provided by Diagenode. In our project, Reduced Representation Bisulfite Sequencing (RRBS) was used and it worked well for both high-quality DNA and DNA extracted from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) material. Bioinformatic analyses were comprehensive and high-quality results were obtained. Diagenode’s services can be recommended.

    Our laboratory has used RRBS sevice of Diagenode on murine and human samples. The service was impeccable in each phase, from the sample preparation to bionformatic analysis because it was always customer-oriented. I highly recommend my colleagues to use the RRBS service from Diagenode.

    Prof. Lucia Altucci, MD, PhD, Seconda Università degli Studi di Napoli, Dipartimento di Biochimica, Biofisica e Patologia generale .

    The new Diagenode Premium RRBS Kit makes it easy to use RRBS cost-effectively and with high throughput, using early sample pooling and multiplex sequencing. Most importantly, the method provides an improved coverage of up to 4 million CpGs for the human genome. We successfully used this protocol on more than 1,000 samples comprising of six different species, various cancers, FFPE and lowinput samples.

    We have had an excellent experience with the RRBS service provided by Diagenode. Our project was based on DNA extracted from human fresh and paraffin-embedded skeletal muscle, and the RRBS and Bioinformatic results were reliable and consistent with what we expécted. We highly recommend their service

    Decline in insulin sensitivity due to dysfunction of adipose tissue (AT) is one of the earliest pathogenic events in Type 2 Diabetes. We hypothesize that differential DNA methylation (DNAm) controls insulin sensitivity and obesity by modulating transcript expression in AT. Integrating AT DNAm profiles with transcrip...
