Fig. 1From: High-throughput and affordable genome-wide methylation profiling of circulating cell-free DNA by methylated DNA sequencing (MeD-seq) of LpnPI digested fragmentsSchematic workflow of MeD-seq on cfDNA. A The LpnPI endonuclease recognizes methylated CpG motifs and incises the DNA 16Â bp upstream and downstream to generate 32Â bp fragments. B After adaptor ligation, size fractionation is performed using the Pippin HT platform. C All fragments of the selected size are amplified by PCR and sequenced. Only fragments with a CpG on the central position pass the filter and are considered as methylated reads.
