We performed DNA methylation profiling in bisulphite converted DNA from cases and controls using the recently developed Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation27 BeadChip, that enables the direct investigation of 27,578 individual cytosines at CpG loci throughout the genome, which are focused on the promoter regions of 14,495 genes.

Each 5″ full-length cDNAs is extended upon hybridization of the riboguanosine-tailed template-switching oligonucleotides to these extra cytosines. (b) In the semisuppressive PCR, the short templates fold intramolecularly and prevent the binding of primers which precludes amplification; longer molecules are less likely to fold and are thus amplified.
