Table 4. Distribution of DMRs in genes.

The number of genes in the mouse liver with at least one differentially methylated region (DMR) associated with maternal diet within the gene body, more than one DMR in the gene body, and at least one DMR in the promoter region (within 2 kb upstream of the transcription start site (p < 0.05). HF = High-fat diet, LF = Low-fat diet, first diet listed is maternal diet and second diet (after the hyphen) is the offspring diet.

Genes with ≥1 DMR in gene body Genes with >1 DMR in gene body Genes with ≥1 DMR in promoter
HF-HF ♀ vs. LF-HF ♀ 7,367 (36.1%) 3,554 (17.4%) 1,878 (9.2%)
HF-LF ♀ vs. LF-LF ♀ 9,358 (45.8%) 5,347 (26.2%) 2,724 (13.4%)
HF-HF ♂ vs. LF-HF ♂ 7,980 (39.1%) 4,031 (19.8%) 2,213 (10.8%)
HF-LF ♂ vs. LF-LF ♂ 9,369 (45.9%) 5,260 (25.8%) 3,254 (16.0%)
