Data 3. Genome-wide CpG coverage matrix of human epidermis tissue generated by whole-genom

Hokyoung Kwak provides a genome-wide CpG coverage matrix generated from whole-genome bisulfite sequencing data of human epidermis tissue samples. The 1.2 GB TSV file contains read depth information for union CpG sites shared among all samples in the study. The dataset was last updated on May 12, 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyze DNA methylation levels across the genome based on CpG site coverage data.
• Compare methylation patterns between epidermis samples based on shared CpG sites.
• Perform epigenome-wide association studies (EWAS) for skin-related traits using whole-genome bisulfite sequencing data.
• Benchmark methylation calling algorithms using coverage information from union CpG sites.

Strengths

• Dataset size is 1.2 GB, indicating substantial data volume.
• Data is derived from whole-genome bisulfite sequencing, a standard method for DNA methylation analysis.
• Coverage is calculated for union CpG sites shared across all samples, facilitating comparative analysis.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Freshness should be verified as the last update is dated 2026-05-12.
