Abstract

Arrays for genome-wide analysis of methylation are disclosed. IN a preferred aspect arrays comprising a plurality of probes complementary to a plurality of identified CpG islands in the human, mouse and rat genome are disclosed. The arrays may be used to detect methylation within cpG islands in samples from human, mouse and rat genomes.
