How to take an image of a bisulfite- modified sequence? - (Apr/26/2008 )

Hi everybody, I would like to know how to take an image of a piece of a DNA sequence modified with bisulfite to use in a paper or a power point presentation. I hope you'll understand me.

Thank you in advance for answering.

it's not very clear to me what you mean by "take an image of a piece of DNA sequence modified ..." what's the problem you have? you could use "print screen" (it's on the right top of your keyboard) and it will create a png image of whatever you're visualizing. other thing is doing an alignment between the non-modified and the bisulfite treated sequence to point out the place where you're having your modifications.

I just meaned that I performed a bisulfite sequencing and I would like to use the sequence (well just a part of it) in a paper. My question was how I can do that. I'll try what you wrote.

Thanks for the response

You can print screen and paste it in photoshop for further editting. You can also print a hard color copy and scan it back into digital files. You can also check whether your chromagraph display program has the function of exporting the graph as image files.
