Whole Genome Bisulfite Sequencing (WGBS) Service


Whole Genome Bisulfite Sequencing (WGBS) is a bisulfite sequencing method to detect in-depth DNA methylation across the entire genome, including methylation at CpG sites and less common non-CpG site such as CNG.

WGBS is the gold standard for bisulfite based DNA methylation studies as the entire genome is sequenced with base-level detail into where every methylated cytosine is located.
