Detecting DNA cytosine methylation using nanopore sequencing

JT Simpson, RE Workman, PC Zuzarte, M David… - Nature …, 2017 - nature.com
In nanopore sequencing devices, electrolytic current signals are sensitive to base modifications,
such as 5-methylcytosine (5-mC). Here we quantified the strength of this effect for the …

Nanopore native RNA sequencing of a human poly (A) transcriptome

RE Workman, AD Tang, PS Tang, M Jain, JR Tyson… - Nature …, 2019 - nature.com
High-throughput complementary DNA sequencing technologies have advanced our
understanding of transcriptome complexity and regulation. However, these methods lose …

Nanopore sequencing detects structural variants in cancer

AL Norris, RE Workman, Y Fan… - Cancer biology & …, 2016 - Taylor & Francis
Despite advances in sequencing, structural variants (SVs) remain difficult to reliably detect
due to the short read length (<300 bp) of 2nd generation sequencing. Not only do the reads (…

[HTML][HTML] Targeted DNA methylation in human cells using engineered dCas9-methyltransferases

T Xiong, GE Meister, RE Workman, NC Kato… - Scientific reports, 2017 - nature.com
Mammalian genomes exhibit complex patterns of gene expression regulated, in part, by DNA
methylation. The advent of engineered DNA methyltransferases (MTases) to target DNA …

Background The release of the first reference genome of walnut (Juglans regia L.) enabled
many achievements in the characterization of walnut genetic and functional variation. …

[PDF][PDF] A natural single-guide RNA repurposes Cas9 to autoregulate CRISPR-Cas expression

RE Workman, T Pammi, BTK Nguyen, LW Graeff… - Cell, 2021 - cell.com
… We replaced the entire 79 nt segment with a 50-GAAA-30 tetraloop and found that repression
of Pcas was maintained (Figure S3I), suggesting that this region is dispensable for tracr-L …

Assembled and annotated 26.5 Gbp coast redwood genome: a resource for estimating evolutionary adaptive potential and investigating hexaploid origin
