Human Whole Blood DNA Methylation Sites with Low Interindividual Correlation

Additional file 5 from a systematic investigation of interindividual variation in DNA methylation. The dataset lists all SMPs (likely Single Methylation Positions or Sites) in human whole blood with low Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC). It was authored by Olivia A. Grant and last updated on 2026-04-11.

Use Cases

• Identify unreliable epigenetic biomarkers based on low ICC values.
• Filter out highly variable methylation sites for population-level analyses.
• Study the biological basis of interindividual epigenetic variation in blood.

Strengths

• File size is 35.3 MB, indicating a substantial list of methylation sites.
• Released under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license for reuse.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
