Distance between the CpG site and the transcriptional start or end site vs the proportion of expression variance explained by the CpG. The correlation of distance of the CpG from the transcriptional start site with the proportion of variation in expression explained by the CpG. X-axis is the distance (measured by base pair) between the CpG locus and the transcriptional start/end site of the gene. Y-axis is the proportion of expression variance explained by the CpG (measured by R2)
