Evaluation of single CpG sites as proxies of CpG island methylation states at the genome scale

Methylation of a CpG island is a faithful marker of silencing of its associated gene. Different approaches report the methylation status of a CpG island based on the determination of one or a few CpG sites by assuming the homogeneity of methylation along the element. This strategy is frequently appl...
