MBDCap-seq/MethylCap-Seq/MiGS
Methyl-CpG Binding Domain (MBD)_Based Capture and Sequencing / Capture of Methylated DNA Using the Methyl-CpG Binding Domain MBD domain of MeCP2 / Methyl-CpG Binding Domain_Isolated Genome Sequencing
MBDCap (Rauch et al., 2008) (Rauch et al., 2009) and MethylCap (Bock et al., 2010) (Brinkman et al., 2010) enrich methylated DNA by affinity purification. These methods are particularly suitable to investigate regional blocks of hypermethylation. The term MiGS is easily confused with the common term MIGS (minimum information about a genome sequence), and is rarely used.
In these methods, gDNA is first sonicated and incubated with tagged MBD proteins that can bind methylated cytosines. Next, the protein-DNA complex is precipitated with antibody-conjugated beads that are specific to the protein tag. The DNA is purified and used to prepare a sequencing library. Deep sequencing provides greater genome coverage, representing the majority of MBD-bound methylated DNA.
Advantages:
- Interrogates regional blocks of hypermethylation
- Compared to HM450K arrays, MBDCap-seq regional coverage of shores (77% vs 28%), enhancers (12% vs 2%), and insulators (11% vs 1%) is much greater (Stirzaker et al., 2015)
- MBDCap-Seq from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues provides equivalent methylation data to fresh-frozen DNA
- MDB proteins can discriminate between 5mC and 5hmC (Yong et al., 2016)
Disadvantages:
- Base-pair resolution is lower (~150 bp), as opposed to single-base resolution with other methods
- Biased toward hypermethylated regions
Reagents:
Illumina Library prep and Array Kit Selector
