Bisulfite sequencing is a powerful technique used to analyze DNA methylation by converting unmethylated cytosines in DNA to uracils, which can then be distinguished from methylated cytosines during sequencing. This method provides detailed information about the methylation status of specific regions of the genome, allowing researchers to study epigenetic regulation and its role in gene expression and cellular differentiation.
congrats on reading the definition of bisulfite sequencing. now let's actually learn it.
