epialleleR

Fast, Accurate, Epiallele-Aware Methylation Caller and Reporter

Bioconductor version: 3.23 · Package version: 1.20.0

Epialleles are specific DNA methylation patterns that are mitotically and/or meiotically inherited. This package calls and reports cytosine methylation as well as frequencies of hypermethylated epialleles at the level of genomic regions or individual cytosines in next-generation sequencing data using binary alignment map (BAM) files as an input. Among other things, this package can also extract and visualise methylation patterns and assess allele specificity of methylation.
