DNA Methylation by Reduced Representation Bisulfite Seq from ENCODE/HudsonAlpha

ABSTRACT: This data was generated by ENCODE. If you have questions about the data, contact the submitting laboratory directly (Florencia Pauli mailto:[e-mail]). If you have questions about the Genome Browser track associated with this data, contact ENCODE (mailto:[e-mail]). This track is produced as part of the ENCODE project. The track reports the percentage of DNA molecules that exhibit cytosine methylation at specific CpG dinucleotides. In general, DNA methylation within a gene's promoter is associated with gene silencing, and DNA methylation within the exons and introns of a gene is associated with gene expression. Proper regulation of DNA methylation is essential during development and aberrant DNA methylation is a hallmark of cancer. DNA methylation status is assayed
