Epigenetics
EWAS data analysis for population epigenetics integrated into Galaxy
Epigenetic aberrations which involve DNA modifications give researchers an interest to identify novel non-genetic factors responsible for complex human phenotypes such as height, weight, and disease. The goal of this session is to analyse differentially methylated regions in treatment resistant melanomas using Galaxy.
Prerequisites
- Introduction to Galaxy or equivalent experience
- Quality Contol of HTS Data or prior exposure to HTS data
- A wi-fi enabled laptop with a modern web browser. Google Chrome, Firefox and Safari will work best
DNA Methylation data analysis
- What is methylation and why it cannot be recognised by a normal NGS procedure?
- Can a different methylation influence the expression of a gene? How?
- Which tools you can use to analyse methylation data?
