Single-cell WGBS is an accurate and reproducible method for genome-wide 5mC analysis. a 5mC promoter methylation status of 58 liver-specific genes. b Merged single cells have the same methylation pattern as their corresponding bulk. Each comparison is based on 10,000 randomly chosen 3-kb windows indicates the number of single cells sequenced. c Principal component analysis of single cells and bulk shows separate clustering of fibroblasts and hepatocytes (both panels) and hepatocytes from old and hepatocytes from young mice
