Bioinformatic Analysis in Epigenetics Research (Nick Pervolarakis)

<p class="md-end-block md-p">In this episode of the Epigenetics Podcast, we caught up with Nick Pervolarakis from Active Motif to talk about bioinformatic analysis in epigenetics research.</p> <p class="md-end-block md-p md-focus">While many “bench scientists” are familiar with the workflows of ChIP-Seq, ATAC-Seq and CUT&Tag, and even the preparation and analysis of the libraries, the steps between sequencing and fully analyzed data is sometimes thought of as a mystery known only to bioinformatic experts. Most of us have some understanding that the raw data is usually in a file format called a FASTQ. But how do we get from FASTQ files to peaks on a genome browser? This Podcast Episode will provide a peek behind the curtain of the informatic analysis we perform at Active Motif, as part of our end-to-end epigenetic services.</p> <p class="md-end-block md-p"> </p> <p class="md-end-block md-p">References</p> <ul class="ul-list"><li class="md-list-item"> <p class="md-end-block md-p"><a href='https://www.activemotif.com/blog-fastq-file'>Life in the FASTQ Lane</a></p> </li> <li class="md-list-item"> <p class="md-end-block md-p"><a href='https://www.activemotif.com/applications-bioinformatics'>Bioinformatics Resource Center</a></p> </li> <li class="md-list-item"> <p class="md-end-block md-p"><a href='https://www.activemotif.com/catalog/704/epigenetic-services'>Epigenetic Services</a></p> <p class="md-end-block md-p"> </p> </li> </ul> <p class="md-end-block md-p">Related Episodes</p> <ul class="ul-list"><li class="md-list-item"> <p class="md-end-block md-p"><a href='https://www.activemotif.com/podcasts#yuan-xue'>Multiple challenges of ATAC-Seq, Points to Consider (Yuan Xue)</a></p> </li> <li class="md-list-item"> <p class="md-end-block md-p"><a href='https://www.activemotif.com/podcasts#mcdonough-tanguay'>Multiple challenges of CUT&Tag (Cassidee McDonough, Kyle Tanguay)</a></p> </li> <li class="md-list-item"> <p class="md-end-block md-p"><a href='https://www.activemotif.com/podcasts#adam-blattler'>Multiple Challenges in
