Differential methylation for each annotated region (Bed file) header interpretation

[freedomq8]

Hi there,

thanks for your efforts to make my analysis easy along with lengthy explanation page. I am looking at the final differential methylation results using BED file and I have a question regarding headers and what do they mean:

For example (i am using the results output from the manual section) i am not sure if i understand what is written beneath each sample at a certain target region

• SRR2052492 (treatment) column at MEG3 region its says 1455768/2043201 what does that mean ? number of cytosine levels / total depth ?

• also log2FC(treament/control) column the values ranges from -1 to 1 what does it mean to have a negative and a positive value in terms of methylation ? for example if the value is -0.3 what does that mean ? and if its 0.8 what does that mean in terms of methylation?

Thanks

If you open the corresponding *DMC.tsv file, you are going to find several cytosine methylation lines for chr14 (i.e. MEG3). If you add the numerator and denominator values of the chr14 lines for that sample (column), you are going to get the numbers that you showed here for MEG3 in that sample 1455768/2043201. Those represent the "C / CTdepth" ratio. * also log2FC(treament/control) column the values ranges from -1 to 1 what does it mean to have a negative and a positive value in terms of methylation ? for example if the value is -0.3 what does that mean ? and if its 0.8 what does that mean in terms of methylation? The log2FC simply tells you whether the level of methylation is higher in the treatment (+) samples or in the control (-) samples. The numerical value shows to what extent the expression is higher in treatment or control samples. It does not necessarily ranges from -1 to 1, it can be higher, as it depends on the samples expression. Thanks — You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
