Predicting gene expression using DNA methylation in two human populations

2018-07-26

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> DNA methylation, an important epigenetic mark, is well known for its regulatory role in gene expression, especially the negative regulation in the promoter region. However, its correlation with gene expression at population level has not been well studied. In particular, it is unclear if genome-wide DNA methylation profile of an individual can predict her/his gene expression profile. Previous...
