TY  - JOUR
AB - DNA methylation plays a fundamental role in the regulation of the genome, but the optimal strategy for analysis ofgenome-wide DNA methylation data remains to be determined. We developed a comprehensive analysis pipelinefor epigenome-wide association studies (EWAS) using the Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip, basedon 2,687 individuals, with 36 samples measured in duplicate. We propose new approaches to quality control, datanormalisation and batch correction through control-probe adjustment and establish a null hypothesis for EWASusing permutation testing. Our analysis pipeline outperforms existing approaches, enabling accurate identificationof methylation quantitative trait loci for hypothesis driven follow-up experiments.
