Methods for discovering genomic loci exhibiting complex patterns of differential methylation.
Thomas J HardcastlePublished in: BMC bioinformatics (2017)
The methods developed here make it possible to analyse high-throughput sequencing of the methylome of any given organism under a diverse set of experimental conditions. The methods are able to identify methylation loci and evaluate the likelihood that a region is truly methylated under any given experimental condition, allowing for downstream analyses that characterise differences between methylated and non-methylated regions of the genome. Futhermore, diverse patterns of differential methylation may also be characterised from these data.
