Mapping DNA replication with nanopore sequencing

Abstract: We have harnessed nanopore sequencing to study DNA replication genome-wide at the single-molecule level. Using in vitro prepared DNA substrates, we characterized the effect of bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) substitution for thymidine on the MinION nanopore electrical signal. Using a neural-network basecaller trained on yeast DNA containing either BrdU or thymidine, we identified BrdU-labelled tracts in yeast cells synchronously entering S phase in the presence of hydroxyurea and BrdU. As expected, the BrdU-labelled … Show more

“…These shifts can be identified post-basecalling and post-alignment with three distinct methods: (a) without prior knowledge about the modification (de novo) by comparing to an in silico reference [105], or a control, non-modified sample (typically amplified DNA) [105,106]; (b) using a pre-trained model [66,107,108] (Fig. 3, Table 1); and (c) directly by a basecaller using an extended alphabet [45,109].…”

“…A development basecaller, Taiyaki [45], can be trained for specific organisms or base modifications. RepNano can basecall BrdU in addition to the four canonical DNA bases [109]. Two major bottlenecks in the creation of modification-ready basecallers are the need for appropriate training data and the combinatorial complexity of adding bases to the basecalling alphabet.…”

“…Importantly, the nanopore sequencer can detect base modifications on long RNA and DNA molecules [7,8]; for review [9]. In particular, we and others reported the detection of bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) or other thymidine analogs incorporated during DNA replication in yeast or mouse DNA [10,11,12]. Using S. cerevisiae cells synchronously progressing through S phase in conditions of limiting BrdU concentrations, Müller et al [11] detected gradients of BrdU incorporation along single DNA molecules at 2 kb resolution.…”

“…For genome-wide analysis of DNA replication, pulse labeling of replication sites by base analogs, such as BrdU (bromodeoxyuridine), is widely used [71]. Attempts to detect base analogs directly using a Nanopore sequencer have been reported by some groups [72][73][74] (Fig. 3b).…”
