1Presents average % methylation at each CpG site. 2Nucleotide positions relative to translation start site. 3CpG sites in UCN with the lowest -value in each tissue type. 4CpG sites methylated at higher levels in both tissues than the average methylation level of all sites examined. 5CpG sites with statistically significant () differential methylation in either tissue. Details of statistical tests used are described in Section 2. Abbreviations: TNL: term no labor; TL: term labor; PTL: preterm labor. |
