How much efficient is the Nanopore sequencing technology in detecting DNA base modifications like 5-mC, 5-hmC, 6-mA etc. ?

05 May 2018 0 7K Report

I am interested in knowing the efficiency of Oxford Nanopore sequencing technology in detecting DNA base modifications like 5-methyl cytosine (5-mC), 5-hydroxymethyl cytosine (5-mC), N6-methyl adenine (6-mA) etc.

Anyone has used Nanopore sequencing to detect DNA base modifications (e.g. 5-mC) without going for bisulfite modification of genomic DNA ?

I want to know if Nanopore sequencing can be used directly to detect modified DNA bases (e.g. 5-mC, 5-hmC, 6-mA etc.) without going for bisulfite modification of genomic DNA before sequencing. If...
