Notes/Column.

A. Down-regulated: designated ‘Y’ if gene was in list of differentially-expressed (down-regulated) genes identified in LaPointe et al., 2012 [32].

B. D-AzaC/TSA activation; Genes with a 2-fold or greater change in gene expression ‘Y’, less than 2-fold ‘N’, borderline ‘(+/-)’.

C. Bis-tag tissue: for genes initially recognised as down-regulated (rows 3-27), genes were scored for methylation difference between cancer and normal tissues on a scale of 0 to 10.

For genes in rows 29-47, those designated ‘Y’ were among the top differentially methylated genes identified by Bis-tag (Additional file 2: Table S4). Those designated ‘(Y)’ were identified from SuBLiME data and differential methylation in clinical samples confirmed by inspection of Bis-tag plots.

D. Bis-tag cells: for genes initially recognised as down-regulated (rows 3-27), genes were scored for methylation in CRC cell lines on a scale of 0 to 4.

E. SuBLiME: for genes initially recognised as down-regulated (rows 3-27), genes were scored for methylation in CRC cell lines on a scale of 0 to 4. For genome-wide analysis (Rows 29-47), ‘Y’ indicates that gene was in list of differentially methylated genes (Ross et al. [16]).

F. SuBLiME rank: shows ranking within list of differentially methylated genes.

‘#’ differential sites (Column E) for these genes were either not found in two or more cell lines or were located in regions outside the promoter region (-2 kb to + 1 kb of UCSC canonical transcription start site) surveyed in Ross et al. [16].

G. TCGA: ‘Y’ denotes that differential methylation is confirmed in TCGA Illumina 27 K bead Chip data.

H. Literature: references demonstrating methylation of gene in colorectal cancer.

I. Roche 454 sequencing: ‘Y’ denotes included in multiplexed bisulfite sequencing.

J. MSP on Tissues: ‘Y’ denotes include in MSP quantification of methylation levels in CRC tissue sample.
