Mapping Bisulfite-Treated Short DNA Reads

Epigenetics are stable heritable traits that are not a result of the DNA sequence. Epigenetic modification of DNA cytosine plays a role in development and disease. The covalent bonding of a methyl group or a hydroxymethyl group to the 5-carbon of cytosine epigenetically modifies cytosine to 5-meth...
