Hypermethylations are associated with CpG-rich and gene-related regions. (a) Pie chart representing the proportions of each genomic features of hyper- or hypomethylated CpGs. The repeats are not included when considering subsequent features. Promoters are defined as 10 kb regions from transcriptional start sites annotated in RefSeq database. (b) Distribution of the distance from transcription start sites to differentially methylated sites. CpG density is shown as a black line. Dotted lines show the ratio of hyper- or hypomethylated CpGs to CpG density. (c) Distribution of CpGo/e ratios surrounding CpGs covered in each MeDIP samples. (d) Distribution of CpGo/e ratios surrounding hyper- or hypomethylated CpGs in BCCs.
