Comparative anatomy of chromosomal domains with imprinted and non-imprinted allele-specific DNA methylation.

Comparative anatomy of chromosomal domains with imprinted and non-imprinted allele-specific DNA methylation.

Allele-specific DNA methylation (ASM) is well studied in imprinted domains, but this type of epigenetic asymmetry is actually found more commonly at non-imprinted loci, where the ASM is dictated not by parent-of-origin but instead by the local haplotype. We identified loci with strong ASM in human t...
