description: HumanMethylation27 DNA Analysis BeadChip allows researchers to interrogate 27,578 highly informative CpG sites per sample at single-nucleotide resolution. This 12-sample BeadChip features content derived from the well-annotated NCBI CCDS database (Genome Build 36) and is supplemented with more than 1,000 cancer-related genes described in published literature. Probe content has been enriched to deeply cover more than 150 well-established cancer genes known to show differential methylation patterns. HumanMethylation27 BeadChip content also targets the promoter regions of 110 miRNA genes.
