Figure 1

Rates of CpG transition, GpC transition, and 5mC deamination varied with local GC content and SNP sequence length. (A) Rates of CpG→TpG/CpA per CpG dinucleotide (solid line) and GpC→GpT/ApC per GpC dinucleotide (dashed line) in the SNP flanking sequences. SNP GC content was calculated from the SNP flanking sequences. (B) 5mC deamination rates, measured by the difference between the rates of CpG transition and GpC transition in A. (C) Plot of log10(5mC deamination rate) versus SNP GC content.
