Linkage disequilibrium analysis of allelic heterogeneity in DNA methylation.
Epigenetics - 1 Jan 2015
Saito Daisuke, Suyama Mikita
Abstract excerpt
Heterogeneity of DNA methylation status among alleles is observed in various cell types and is involved in epigenetic gene regulation and cancer biology. However, the individual methylation profile within each allele has not yet been examined at the whole-genome level. In the present study, we applied linkage disequilibrium analysis to the DNA methylation data obtained from whole-genome bisulfite sequencing...
