Project description:The aim of this study was to characterize the genome-wide DNA methylation profiles of nonhuman primate trabecular bone samples (n=58), identify how they relate to aspects of femur bone morphology, and assess how these epigenetic patterns vary between taxa. The Illumina Infinium MethylationEPIC array was used to assess genome-wide methylation patterns.
Project description:The aim of this study was to characterize the genome-wide DNA methylation profiles of chimpanzee trabecular bone samples (n=4), identify how they relate to aspects of femur bone morphology, and assess how these epigenetic patterns relate to those in other primate taxa. The Illumina Infinium MethylationEPIC array was used to assess genome-wide methylation patterns.
Project description:We examined 36 biopsies taken from digital dermatitis lesions of Holstein cows. The target was the V3 -V4 variable region of 16S rRNA using Treponema specific primers. We identified 20 different taxa of Treponema using this approach. Phylogenetic study of the Treponema taxa found in digital dermatitis lesions of Holstein cows.
