Figure 2From: Bisulfite-based epityping on pooled genomic DNA provides an accurate estimate of average group DNA methylationGroup average DNA methylation estimates from pooled and individual DNA samples for the androgen receptor (AR) amplicon on the X-chromosome. Both the pool estimates and group averages based on individual DNA methylation data for the androgen receptor (AR) gene on the X chromosome clearly demonstrate the expected sex differences in DNA methylation with 'offspring' and 'total sample' pools (50% male, 50% female) showing intermediate levels of DNA methylation compared with the high level of methylation in the 'mothers' pool and low level of methylation in the 'fathers' pool.Back to article page
