Improved Prediction of Non-methylated Islands in Vertebrates Highlights Different Characteristic Sequence Patterns.
Non-methylated islands (NMIs) of DNA are genomic regions that are important for gene regulation and development. A recent study of genome-wide non-methylation data in vertebrates by Long et al. (eLife 2013;2:e00348) has shown that many experimentally identified non-methylated regions do not overlap...
