Schematic representation of the top-ranked DMR (LTA). The genomic coordinates are plotted on the top lane using the version hg19 of the UCSC genome browser (https://genome.ucsc.edu), where each division is 200 base pairs. Mean beta values for CP (red line) and normal (green lines) twins are plotted on the next lane. The light blue box indicates the differentially methylated region. DNase I hypersensitive sites is plotted in subsequent lane. The DNase I hypersensitive site data was obtained from the UCSC Genome Browser, and the dark blue boxes represent the characterised gene based on reference sequence. The vertical blue lines on the genome browser map indicate the three CpG units validated on MassArray EpiTYPER
