Each row refers to two classes, which we refer to as the a and b classes, each with the reverse complement properties of the other. The a class is the one with the higher percentage of T+C, and the base frequencies for this class are shown in columns 2-3-4-5. The frequencies for the b class are the same but with the A/T and C/G frequencies interchanged. Column 6 gives the mean length of the class in bases and column 7 gives the proportion of doublets within the class that are CpG: these two quantities are the same for both the a and b classes. Column 8 gives the proportion of bases in the genome within both classes of the class pair: the total of column 8 is therefore 1.0. The class pairs have been numbered by the proportion of bases they contain. All values have been calculated from the fitted HMM: the parameters of this model are given in Additional File 1.
