Fig. 2From: Sex differences in DNA methylation assessed by 450 K BeadChip in newbornsPercent of 450 K CpGs (purple), and percent of all (blue), hypermethylated (dark green), and hypomethylated (light green) autosomal differentially methylated positions (DMPs) associated with sex (a & b). These percentages are given by island functional categories (island, shore, shelf, and open sea) in a, and gene functional categories (within 1500 bp of a transcription start site (TSS), 200 bp of a TSS, a 5′ untranslated region (UTR), first exon, gene body, 3′UTR, and intergenic) in b. * indicates that the proportion of sites significantly altered compared to the coverage on the 450 K BeadChip (P < 0.05)Back to article page
