A survey of DNA methylation polymorphism identifies environmentally responsive co-regulated networks of epigenetic variation in the human genome

2017-09-15

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> While studies such as the 1000 Genomes Projects have resulted in detailed maps of genetic variation in humans, to date there are few robust maps of epigenetic variation. We defined sites of common epigenetic variation, termed Variably Methylated Regions (VMRs) in five purified cell types. We observed that VMRs occur preferentially at enhancers and 3’ UTRs. While the majority of VMRs have high he...
