Fig. 3From: The BisPCR2 method for targeted bisulfite sequencingBisPCR2 DNA methylation analysis confirms increased CpG methylation in type 2 diabetic human islets at the MEG3 locus. a Average percent CpG methylation at the MEG3 locus for five non-diabetic and five type 2 diabetic human islet samples measured by BisPCR2. p values calculated by a two-tailed t test. *p < 0.05. Error bars indicate SEM. b Quantification of average percent CpG methylation by pyrosequencing using the same samples and same MEG3 PCR primer sequences as in a. Only 2 of 19 CpGs are covered in the pyrosequencing assay. Data displayed as in a. Back to article page
