The largest database of trusted experimental protocols

Epic 850k beadchip

Manufactured by Illumina
Sourced in United States

The EPIC/850k BeadChip is a high-density microarray platform designed for genome-wide DNA methylation analysis. It provides comprehensive coverage of CpG sites across the human genome, allowing for the interrogation of DNA methylation patterns at a large scale.

DNA Methylation Analysis of Tumors

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The tumors were subjected to Illumina Infinium 450 k BeadChip or the successor EPIC/850 k BeadChip (Illumina, San Diego, USA) analysis at the Genomics and Proteomics Core Facility of the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ) Heidelberg. DNA-methylation data were normalized by performing background correction and dye bias correction (shifting of negative control probe mean intensity to zero and scaling of normalization control probe mean intensity to 20,000, respectively). Probes targeting sex chromosomes, probes containing multiple single nucleotide polymorphisms and those that could not be uniquely mapped were removed. Probes were excluded if the predecessor Illumina Infinium 450 k BeadChip did not cover them, thereby making data generated by both 450 k and EPIC comparable for subsequent analyses. In total, 438,370 probes were kept for analysis.

DNA was also analyzed using the Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 (450 k) BeadChip or the EPIC/850k BeadChip (Illumina, San Diego, USA) at the Genomics and Proteomics Core Facility of the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ) in Heidelberg. DNA methylation data were normalized by applying background correction and dye bias correction (shifting of negative control probe mean intensity to zero and scaling of normalization control probe mean intensity to 20,000, respectively). Probes targeting sex chromosomes, probes containing multiple single nucleotide polymorphisms, and probes that could not be uniquely mapped were removed.

Quantitative DNA Methylation Analysis

Representative tumor tissue with highest available tumor content was chosen for DNA extraction. The Maxwell® 16 FFPE Plus LEV DNA Kit or the Maxwell® 16 Tissue DNA Purification Kit (for frozen tissue) was applied on the automated Maxwell device (Promega, Madison, WI, USA) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. All tumors had a total amount of >100 ng DNA and were suitable for the array-based DNA methylation analysis. All tumors were subjected to Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 (450k) BeadChip or the successor EPIC/850k BeadChip (Illumina, San Diego, USA) analysis at the Genomics and Proteomics Core Facility of the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ) Heidelberg. DNA methylation data were normalized by performing background correction and dye bias correction (shifting of negative control probe mean intensity to zero and scaling of normalization control probe mean intensity to 20000, respectively). Probes targeting sex chromosomes, probes containing multiple single nucleotide polymorphisms and those that could not be uniquely mapped were removed. Probes from the EPIC array were excluded if the predecessor Illumina Infinium 450k BeadChip did not cover them, thereby making data generated by both 450k and EPIC feasible for subsequent analyses. In total, 438370 probes were kept for analysis.

DNA Methylation Profiling with Illumina Arrays

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The DNA methylation profiling was based on the Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450K BeadChip in the FHS and WHI cohort and was based on the Illumina Infinium EPIC 850K BeadChip in the JHS cohort. To ensure future use with EPIC arrays, we focused on the subset of 450,161 CpGs that were present on both platforms. We kept the original normalization methods to ensure consistency with previous publications. The WHI BA23 were normalized using the background correction method implemented in the software GenomeStudio. WHI EMPC were normalized based on BMIQ [57 (link)] for beta-mixture quantile normalization. The JHS data were normalized using the "noob" normalization method implemented in the minfi R package [58 (link),59 (link)].

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
