The PGC and TFF1 stomach-specific genes, which were weakly active in the gastric mucosa when compared with the two master stomach-specific genes, were densely methylated in bone marrow (mean methylation level, 4.3 and 4.8).
Individual CpGs within the maternally methylated DMRS were tightly clustered near the mean methylation level for each individual, whereas the CpGs within the paternally methylated DMRs had a wider range of intra-assay CpG variability.
The mean methylation level of regenerants showed a 0.28% to 3.95% decrease in seedlings subcultured in vitro for nine generations.
We found that the mean methylation level of regenerants showed a 0.28%too 3.95% decrease in seedlings subcultured in vitro for nine generations, which indicate that the epigenetic nature of somaclonal variations exsit in torenia.
The mean methylation level of the R0 plants was 12.78%, whereas that of the R9 plants decreased by 0.28%3.95%% compared with that of the R0 plants (Table 5).
We next compared the mean methylation level of gene-associated CGs derived from the Infinium array to global methylation measured by capillary electrophoresis (CE) (Figure 3C).
The mean methylation level of the three groups of tumors is statistically different, with a p-value = 0.011 for the trend (Figure 3).
Mean methylation level of duplicates was used.
We assume these fluctuations arise solely from fluctuations in the mean methylation level m.
CD11a mRNA levels were negatively correlated with the mean methylation level in the promoter region.
The mean methylation level of the duplicates was used in the analysis.
