Bisulfite-free direct detection of 5-methylcytosine and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine at base resolution
We report a new bisulfite-free 5mC and 5hmC base-resolution sequencing method: TET Assisted Pyridine borane Sequencing (TAPS). TAPS relies on mild reactions and detects DNA modifications directly, without affecting unmodified cytosines. We applied this method for the first time to whole genome sequencing in E14 mESC cell line. For comparsion we prepared whole-genome bisulfite sequencing in the same cell line. Compared with bisulfite sequencing, TAPS results in higher mapping rates, more even cov...

Deep data QC
metadata only · no data-level QC for this typeStandardized, field-standard QC computed by touching the data — every metric states how it was obtained
No quantitative QC rubric exists for this data type yet, so it is deliberately left unscored — this is an honest "not applicable", not a poor rating.
measured = computed from the data · extrapolated/reported = derived or from the repository · dq-1.0 · provisional — verify independently
