DNA co-methylation has a stable structure and is related to specific aspects of genome regulation

2022-03-18

Abstract excerpt

DNA methylation (DNAm) is influenced by genetic and environmental factors, and can be used to understand interindividual variability in genomic regulation. Co-methylation between DNAm sites is a known phenomenon, but the architecture of relationships between the approximately 450,000 (450k) sites commonly measured in epidemiological studies has not been described. We investigate whether interindividual co-methylat...
