Research title
DNA Methylation Analysis of Early Human Embryos
Research overview
Aims: To generate single-base resolution DNA methylome maps of human gametes and embryos and uncover DNA methylation dynamics during early human development.
Methods: Whole genome bisulfite sequencing libraries were prepared using the post-bisulfite adaptor tagging (PBAT) method. PBAT libraries were sequenced on the HiSeq 2000 or 2500 platform (Illumina) with 100 bp single-end reads.
Targets: Human oocytes, sperm, preimplantation embryos, and cord blood cells
