Figure 2From: Whole-genome bisulfite sequencing of multiple individuals reveals complementary roles of promoter and gene body methylation in transcriptional regulationRelationships between the DNA methylation and expression levels of genes. Each point in the figure corresponds to a gene. The methylation of a gene is the average level over its body and the 2 kb upstream region. The four panels correspond to the results based on four different DNA methylation measures. Color indicates number of points (in log 2 scale) within a cell when the occupied space is divided into a 500×500 grid.Back to article page
