Table 2.
Methylation levels are more consistent across species than across organs.
Hypomethylated CpG (<20%) | Hypermethylated CpG > 80% | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Organ | Liver | Brain | p-value | Liver | Brain | p-value |
Mouse | 62.7% | 61.1% | 0.5 | 24.35% | 24.2% | 0.5805 |
Zebrafish | 24.1% | 14.78% | 0.03 | 63.4% | 68.9% | 0.2692 |
p-value | 2.35e - 09 | 2.32e - 14 | 2.35e - 09 | 2.34e - 11 | ||
Ratios are the percent of methylated CpGs out of all the CpG10 detected. The p-value on the right is between liver and brain in mouse and zebrafish. The p-value on the bottom is between mouse and zebrafish in liver and brain.
