Abstract

Methods, compositions and kits are provided to amplify an amount of genomic methylated DNA that can be subsequently analyzed and/or sequenced. It has particular use with small amounts of DNA, including, but not limited to cell free DNA samples. In some embodiments, the ratio of polymerase and methyltransferase is controlled in order to provide maximum yields. In some embodiments, a dual primase/polymerase is used.
