Project name: Homo sapiens

Description: Comparative analysis of DNA methylation in 12 human chorionic villus samples and 12 human maternal blood cell samplesOverall design: We performed a genome wide analysis of DNA methylation first trimester CVS samples and gestational age matched MBCs. We analyzed DNA samples obtained from 12 CVS samples and 12 MBC samples. Data were generated using two high-throughput approaches: the Infinium “humanmethylation27” platform marketed by Illumina and a custom Agilent-based platform. We then compared these data with genome wide transcription data for the same tissues.This Series covers only the Illumina HumanMethylation27 part of the study.

Data type: Epigenomics

Sample scope: Multiisolate
