Fig. 3: Properties of placental DMRs.
From: An allele-resolved nanopore-guided tour of the human placental methylome
a Placental DMRs are highly biased towards paternal demethylation when compared to a non-placental sample (NA19240, EBV-transformed lymphoblastoid cell line). Methylation difference in (a) is defined as paternal minus maternal methylation fraction. For each sample, the top 100 DMRs based on our analysis are shown. b Placental DMRs are more differentially methylated in placenta versus other tissues or cell lines. Lighter colour corresponds to a greater absolute difference in methylation fraction between alleles.
