- 1New framework links DNA methylation to variant effects genome-wide●A framework for genome-wide characterization of DNA methylation and variant effect prediction
Researchers publishing in Nature have introduced a framework for characterizing DNA methylation patterns across the whole genome and using them to predict the effects of genetic variants. The method could help interpret how non-coding variation influences gene regulation and disease risk. It is being discussed as a useful computational resource for genomics and precision medicine researchers.
