DNA sequence explains seemingly disordered methylation levels in partially methylated domains of Mammalian genomes.
For the most part metazoan genomes are highly methylated and harbor only small regions with low or absent methylation. In contrast, partially methylated domains (PMDs), recently discovered in a variety of cell lines and tissues, do not fit this paradigm as they show partial methylation for large por...
