Abstract
DNA methylation is a widespread epigenetic modification that has been implicated in many processes of transcriptional regulation, development, and disease. DNAm can be assayed using a ChIP-seq-like approach called MeDIP, but doing so poses analytical challenges not found in ChIP-seq data. We discuss approaches for analysing MeDIP data, and several recent findings concerning the landscape and variability of the DNA methylation mark.
