Description
This container comprises various DNA Methylation tracks from different sources.
Click on the specific subtracks for detailed descriptions of the data.
The two tracks available are:
- Human Methylation Atlas Summary (hg38/hg19) - Contains cell-type-specific marker regions
identified from the atlas, including all unmethylated regions, putative
enhancers derived from unmethylated regions, and the top 250 most specifically
unmethylated regions per cell type.
- Human Methylation Atlas Signals (hg38/hg19) - Contains per-cell-type
methylation signal tracks (bigWig format) showing methylation beta values (0-1 scale)
across the genome, with merged tracks combining all replicates per cell type and
replicate tracks for each individual sample.
