Sample GSM6914901 Query DataSets for GSM6914901
Status Public on Apr 28, 2023
Title 44_XT
Sample type SRA
 
Source name hindlimb webbing
Organism Xenopus tropicalis
Characteristics tissue: hindlimb webbing
strain: Xtr.Tg(eef1a1:GFP)Krieg
dob: 17/03/2011
Treatment protocol Frogs were kept in tanks with constant temperature of 25°C and 12/12 hour light cycle.
Growth protocol Sixteen adult Xenopus tropicalis were housed at the National Xenopus Resource (RRID:SCR_013731) in two multi-rack recirculating aquatic systems with established diet and water parameters (conductivity, pH, and temperature) as previously defined.
Extracted molecule genomic DNA
Extraction protocol Disposable biopsy punches were used to collect tissue (VWR 21909–140) from the hindlimb webbing of the frogs. DNA extraction was performed from web punches (4 mm in diameter except 6-months old for which we did 2mm), according to Xu Y. et al. (Xu et al. 2020) with minor modifications. Briefly, tissue chunks were digested o/n in a 1.5 ml tube containing 200 µl of lysis buffer (100 mM Tris-HCl pH 8; 200 mM NaCl; 0.20% SDS; 5 mM EDTA) + 4 µl of Proteinase K (20 mg/ml, NEB) at 55°C (300 rpm continuous shaking in a thermomixer). After centrifugation for 15 min at 16'000g (room temperature), the supernatant was transferred into a new tube avoiding the debris. The centrifugation step was repeated after the addition and mixing of the same volume of isopropanol. The resulting pellet was then washed twice with 500 µl of EtOH 70% (centrifugation at 16'000g for 10 min, RT). The remaining ethanol was then carefully removed and the pellet air dried for 5-10 minutes at 55°C (open caps). The dried pellet was then resuspended with 55 µl of EB buffer (10 mM Tris-HCl pH 8) at 55°C for 1 h at 1400 rpm in a thermomixer, before being quantified (Qubit dsDNA BR - Life Technologies) and quality checked (Agilent 4200 TapeStation - Genomic Assay).
500 ng of purified DNA was sonicated using the Bioruptor Pico (Diagenode) for 15 cycles of 30 second ON / 90 seconds OFF. Libraries were prepared according to Morselli et al. (Morselli et al. 2022) with minor modifications. Briefly, NEB Next Ultra II DNA kit was used for end-repair, A-tailing and ligation of pre-methylated unique-dual indexed adapters (Morselli et al., Methods 2021). Hybridization capture was performed as described in Morselli et al., Epigenetics 2022). Bisulfite conversion was performed with EZ DNA Methylation-Gold (Zymo Research) according to the manufacturer's instructions. The final amplification was performed with KAPA HiFi U+ (Roche Sequencing), IDT xGen Primers (20 µM - Integrated DNA Technologies), and 12 PCR cycles. Library QC was performed using the D1000 Assay on a 4200 Agilent TapeStation, and its concentration measured with the Qubit dsDNA BR Assay (Life Technologies). Libraries were sequenced on a NovaSeq6000 (SP lane) as paired-end 150 bases.

Description Xen-capture9
Targeted Bisulfite Sequencing (TBSeq)
Data processing Demultiplexed Fastq files were subject to QC (FastQC - Babraham Bioinformatics) and trimming with cutadapt v2.10 (Martin 2011) (options: -u -10 -U 10 -q 20 -m 50).
Alignment to the Xenopus tropicalis genome (version XENTR_10.0) with BSBolt Align (Farrell et al. 2021) (default options).
PCR duplicates were removed with samtools markdup (option -r) v1.15 (Danecek et al. 2021).
DNA methylation was called using BSBolt CallMethylation v1.3.0 (options: -BQ 10 -MQ 20 -IO) resulting in CGmap files.
The matrices of common CpG sites (with at least 100x coverage) were produced using BSBolt AggregateMatrix.
Assembly: Xenopus tropicalis genome (version XENTR_10.0)
