چکیده
Summary The Illumina Infinium HumanMethylationEPIC BeadChip is the new platform for high-throughput DNA methylation analysis, effectively doubling the coverage compared to the older 450 K array. Here we present a significantly updated and improved version of the Bioconductor package ChAMP, which can be used to analyze EPIC and 450k data. Many enhanced functionalities have been added, including correction for cell-type heterogeneity, network analysis and a series of interactive graphical user interfaces. Availability and implementation ChAMP is a BioC package available from https://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/ChAMP.html.

متن کاملAn evaluation of analysis pipelines for DNA methylation profiling using the Illumina HumanMethylation450 BeadChip platform
The proper identification of differentially methylated CpGs is central in most epigenetic studies. The Illumina HumanMethylation450 BeadChip is widely used to quantify DNA methylation; nevertheless, the design of an appropriate analysis pipeline faces severe challenges due to the convolution of biological and technical variability and the presence of a signal bias between Infinium I and II prob...
متن کاملGenome-Wide Methylation Analysis Identifies Specific Epigenetic Marks In Severely Obese Children
Obesity is a heterogeneous disease with many different subtypes. Epigenetics could contribute to these differences. The aim of this study was to investigate genome-wide DNA methylation searching for methylation marks associated with obesity in children and adolescents. We studied DNA methylation profiles in whole blood cells from 40 obese children and controls using Illumina Infinium HumanMethy...
متن کاملA Patient-Centric Methylation Pipeline
This application note outlines the methodology implemented in the NextBio platform (Figure 1) for detecting changes in DNA methylation for data produced on the Illumina Infinium methylation assays. The method analyzes data in a patient-centric context, i.e., data are obtained for an individual patient, rather than as a batch. Therefore, the underlying analysis must be expanded to handle this co...
