Figure 1

BCCs undergo massive overall loss of methylation. (a) The number of differentially methylated 100 kb segments were counted for each cell lines. (b) Log scaled scatter plot of the MeDIP/Input ratio in each 100 kb segments for HMEC and BCCs (for BCCs the average ratio is shown). The red and green dots show hyper- and hypomethylation respectively. The dashed line shows a diagonal line. (c) Genome-wide distribution of hyper- or hypomethylated regions. Red bars indicate hypermethylated regions and green bars indicate hypomethylated regions. Circles indicate centromeres. (d) The distribution of the number of CpGs within hyper- or hypomethylated regions. (e) The distribution of the number of genes within hyper- or hypomethylated regions.
