6mA statistics in WT and ΔAMT1 cells

Single molecule WT ΔAMT1
Number Percentage (%) Number Percentage (%)
ApT 992,618,784 100 842,024,326 100
6mApT sites 18,750,787 1.89 4,248,723 0.50
Full 8,373,723 89.32 64,270 3.03
Hemi-W 998,137 5.32 2,051,797 48.29
Hemi-C 1,005,304 5.36 2,068,386 48.68
Total 6mApT 18,750,787 100 4,248,723 100
  • (Top) The number of total ApT (with or without modification) and 6mApT sites in DNA molecules fully mapped to the MAC. Both W and C are counted. Percentage of DNA methylation is also calculated [6mApT/(total ApT)]. (Bottom) The number of full-6mApT and hemi-6mApT duplexes. Note that each full-6mApT duplex contains two 6mA sites, whereas each hemi-6mApT duplex only contains one site. Percentages of full-6mApT and hemi-6mApT duplexes are also calculated.
