Characterization of imprinted methylation using the Illumina Infinium MethylationEPIC array platform
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Bisulphite (BS) converted DNA from 2 paternal uniparental diploidies (pUPDs), one maternal (mUPD) and 5 control leukocytes samples were hybridized to the Infinium HumanMethylationEPIC BeadChip (Illumina), obtaining the BS DNA methylation profiles across approximately 850,000 CpGs. In addition, the 5 control leukocyte samples were also coverted using oxidative bisulphite (oxBS) treatment. The selective chemical oxidation of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) to 5-formylcytosine (5fC) and the deamination of the latter to uracil during the BS conversion allowed the quantification of independent 5-methylcytosine (5mC) and 5hmC methylation levels at every single CpG.
