Ranking of Exonic CpG for Potential Deleterious Impact of Genetic Variation

Rank Criteria Numbera
1 No CpG in humans 185,919
2 CpG in humans but nonsynonymous changes in other species or nonsynonymous in humans at a codon position not within the CpG 222,582
3 CpG in humans with nonsynonymous SNP, CpG is minor allele 5,630
4 Conserved CpG 359,388
5 CpG in humans with synonymous change in human or other species or with SNP, CpG is major allele 123,896
6 Conserved CpG within gene showing a nominally significant LRT(5) 102,738
7 CpG in humans with synonymous change in human or other species within gene showing a nominally significant LRT(5) or with human SNP where CpG is major allele 42,057

Note.—From 14,348 genes, there were 1,042,210 exonic CpG. Number is the total of CpG at each rank.
