Seqmonk: Bedgraph as input ? (EPIC methylation array data)

Hi everyone,

Is it possible to give Bedgraph of methylation data as input to Seqmonk?

I do not have .cov or .bam. because the data is from EPIC methylation array. I only have Bedgraph.

I uploaded it as text file but it is not giving me strand separated view and rather like a line as in bed file. When I somehow quantitated no difference is observed in methylation pattern, which I clearly observed by UCSC view. I feel something is wrong in the way I am uploading.

I am also not sure how to design probe in seqmonk. I mean the window size, probe size ,step size for such kind of files.

If anyone have a suggestion or previous experience please help!

Thanks

I'm not sure why you want to use Seqmonk for analysis of EPIC data.

However, these are some options that you have for EPIC data analysis:

GenomeStudio : pre-processing / beta calculation; some differential methylation

minfi : pre-processing / beta calculation; differential methylation, at either site or region level (with bumphunter)

COHCAP : primarily differential methylation (at site level, then region level)

RnBeads : QC plots; pre-processing and differential methylation
