Methylation patterns at the adjacent CpG sites within enhancers are a part of cell identity

Abstract Background It is generally accepted that methylation status of CpG sites spaced up to 50 bp apart is correlated, and accumulation of locally disordered methylation at adjacent CpG sites is involved in neoplastic transformation, acting in similar way as stochastic accumulation of mutations....
