## DNA methylation data from cancer tissue from glioblastoma patients from the TCGA project

### Description

Cancer Gene expression data of glioblastoma patients from the TCGA project. A set of 14 genes that have been shown in the literature to be involved in differential methylation in glioblastoma were selected as an example to try out MethylMix.

### Usage
