Unsupervised clustering of DNA methylation profiles. (A) UMAP dimension reduction of the 100 first principal components derived from the most variable methylation β values (SD > 0.2, n = 32,500 probes). Twenty‐one BCOR‐ITD samples, with 528 reference tumours (310 brain tumours from Capper et al [29], 212 sarcomas from Koelsche et a. [28], and 6 in‐house BCOR‐CCNB3 tumours). (B) Dendrogram of hierarchical clustering using Euclidian distances and the complete linkage method applied to the same dataset as in (A). Locations of BCOR‐ITD sarcomas and CNS BCOR‐ITD tumours are depicted in red and blue, respectively. The grey square outlines the position of the zoom‐in shown in (C). (C) Zoom‐in on the dendrogram. The ‘Source’ bar refers to the control tumours (light grey for sarcoma cases, dark grey for brain tumours) and the cases of the series in yellow, with the corresponding P numbers. The ‘Tumour type’ bar allocates a tumour type to each case, with the same colour code as in (A) and Figure 3.
