DNA methylation is decreased in individuals with mood disorders at the SYN2 CpG island. a Graphical representations of the CpG islands predicted at the promoter and first exons of Synapsin genes. b Percent methylation levels for individual CpGs at SYN2 show some significant (p < 0.05) or suggestive (p < 0.1) decreased levels of DNA methylation in BD and more in MDD, while several CpGs have no differences at all. The CpG-to-CpG correlation matrix shows some clusters of correlated percent methylation levels with others seemingly completely independent. The cluster at chr3:12046417-12046478, where 3 consecutive CpGs have decreased DNA methylation levels, overlaps with a predicted binding site for EZH2
