Sex Chromosomes and Sex Phenotype Contribute to Biased DNA Methylation in Mouse Liver

Sex Chromosomes and Sex Phenotype Contribute to Biased DNA Methylation in Mouse Liver

Sex biases in the genome-wide distribution of DNA methylation and gene expression levels are some of the manifestations of sexual dimorphism in mammals. To advance our understanding of the mechanisms that contribute to sex biases in DNA methylation and gene expression, we conducted whole genome bisu...
