Characterization of the methylation and hydroxymethylation states of CpG sites in a 392-bp fragment of P16 exon-1 in representative OED samples. a DHPLC chromatogram of total-P16M (red arrow-pointed) and total-P16U PCR products amplified from regular bisulfite-templates (Bis); or P16H (green arrow-pointed) and non-hydroxymethylated-P16 (P16N) PCR products amplified from TAB-templates (TAB). P16 hemi-methylated cell line HCT116 was used as standard control; Sample-C was total-P16M-negative and P16H-negative; b Results of TAB-sequencing and bisulfite-sequencing for two representative total-P16M-positive and P16H-positive samples, respectively; each line represents one clone; blue-dot, methylated or hydroxymethylated CpG site; #1–35, CpG ID; location of the 115-bp MethyLight amplicon and the 150-bp TAB-hMSP amplicon were also indicated
