Yesterday, I sheared the Lotterhos C.virginica gDNA in preparation for MBD enrichment. Today, I proceeded with MBD enrichment using the MethylMiner Kit (Invitrogen) on 12 of the 24 samples. I followed the manufacturer’s protocol for input DNA >1ug - 10ug with the following modifications:
2500ng of input DNA used
discarded washes post-DNA-binding
performed high-salt elution
elutions were stored @ -20oC until ready for EtOH precipitation next week
The full sample list and calculations are here (Google Sheet):
