Abstract
Provided herein are methods of identifying a methylation status of an analyte in a biological sample. Also provided herein are methods that combine identifying the methylation status with spatial technology to identify the location of a methylation status in a biological sample.
Claims1
A method for identifying methylation status of an analyte in a biological sample, the method comprising:
- (a) contacting the biological sample with an array comprising a plurality of capture probes, wherein a capture probe in the plurality of capture probes comprises (i) a spatial barcode and (ii) a capture domain comprising at least one methylated cytosine;
- (b) deaminating the analyte in the biological sample;
- (c) contacting the analyte with a plurality of probes comprising a first probe and a second probe, wherein
- the first probe comprises (i) a sequence complementary to at least a first sequence of the analyte and (ii) a sequence complementary to the capture domain;
- and
- the second probe comprises a sequence complementary to at least a second sequence of the analyte;
- (d) ligating the first probe and the second probe, thereby generating a ligation product;
- (e) hybridizing the ligation product to the capture probe;
- (f) extending the capture probe using the ligation product as a template;
- thereby generating an extended capture probe;
- and
- (g) determining (i) all or a portion of the sequence of the spatial barcode or the complement thereof, and (ii) all or a portion of the sequence of the extended capture probe, or a complement thereof, and using the determined sequences of (i) and (ii) to identify the methylation status of the analyte in the biological sample.
