Whole genome bisulfite sequencing(WGBS) is a next-generation sequencing technology used to determine the DNA methylation status of single cytosines by treating the DNA with sodium bisulfite before high-throughput DNA sequencing. The
DNA methylation is an epigenetic mechanism to regulate gene expression and involves adding a methyl group to a cytosine base. Abnormal methylation patterns have been associated with several conditions and diseases, such as cancer.
Advantages of whole genome methylation sequencing (WGBS):
1. High measurement accuracy
2. Wide detection range
3. High reliability
4. High cost performance
