DMRcate-package: DMR calling from bisulfite sequencing and Illumina array data

DMRcate-packageR Documentation

DMR calling from bisulfite sequencing and Illumina array data

Description

De novo identification and extraction of differentially methylated regions (DMRs) in the human genome using Illumina array and bisulfite sequencing data. DMRcate extracts and annotates differentially methylated regions (DMRs) using a kernel-smoothed estimate. Functions are provided for filtering probes possibly confounded by SNPs and cross-hybridisation. Includes GRanges generation and plotting functions.
