"Lollipops" Methylation plot

Description

Visualization of methylation patterns in terms of "Lollipops" plot

Usage

MethLollipops(methData)

Arguments

methData

List; contains information on the pairwise alignments, and methylated CpG motifs.

Details

The lollipops plot allows the user to study the genomic localization and states of CpG sites. Each circle marks a CpG site under study. Full circles display methylated CpGs and the non filled ones stand for non methylated CpG states. The examined sequences are aligned with respect to the genomic sequence in order to allow for an intuitive visualization of methylation states according to their genomic position.

Value

Returns a "lollipop" plot
