Figure 1From: MethMarker: user-friendly design and optimization of gene-specific DNA methylation assaysMethMarker employs a six-step workflow to design, optimize and validate DNA methylation biomarkers for a given differentially methylated DNA region (DMR). In addition to its main purpose as a full-scale biomarker development tool, MethMarker can also be used simply as an assay design software, in which case steps 3 to 6 (yellow boxes) are omitted.Back to article page
