Figure S10 PCR amplification products of alternate splice events. PCR amplification of introns of IR category showing methylation in our MeDIP-Seq data (A; IRM1 to IRM7) and their constitutive counterparts (B; IRC1 to IRC7). (TIF) Figure S11 Methylated and Unmethylated CGI distri- bution around TSS. Methylation pattern in methylated/ unmethylated CpG Island around their start site. Distribution of peak summit count in 100 bp sliding window, 5 kb upstream and downstream from the start site was calculated for methylated and unmethylated CpG Islands. (TIF) Table S1 Real Time PCR validation of the MeDIP process. The methylated regions were selected as imprinted regions either in rat (H19) or in Human and mice (Gnas). Negative regions were randomly taken from the genome where there were no CpGs. The enrichment is shown as E.
