Abstract
Methods to probe DNA methylation in the majority of non-human mammals are lacking. Here the authors developed a Mammalian Methylation Array that includes 36k well-conserved CpGs in mammals which will facilitate cross-species comparisons. They annotate the conserved CpGs in > 200 species. The array allows one to measure methylation in all mammalian species including unsequenced ones.
