New framework links DNA methylation to variant effects
Original: A framework for genome-wide characterization of DNA methylation and variant effect prediction
A study published in Nature presents a framework for characterising DNA methylation across the whole genome and using it to predict the effects of genetic variants. The approach is expected to help researchers better interpret how regulatory changes contribute to disease and other traits, providing a tool for functional genomics and variant interpretation.
Why now: Fresh publication of a new genomics method in a leading journal has drawn attention from researchers working on methylation and variant interpretation.
