    how to compare methylomes

    Hi, I am new to bisulfite sequencing and am confronted with an experiment where I would have to compare methylation states for several samples, some of which are paired (i.e. same individual, different tissues).
    After some reading I have found Bismark to do methylation analysis on a one-by-one sample basis, if I am not wrong. I think I will be using Bismark for detecting methylation in a per sample basis.

    But my question is, can anyone provide some guidelines as to how to compare samples after detecting methylation hotspots and if it is possible to take into account the pairing issue? Also, any references I can look for would be great.

    Thanks

    In case it helps anyone, I found this article with one possible solution:

      How Immunogenomics Decodes Immunity’s Genetic Blueprint
      by SEQadmin2




      The immune system’s power comes from its genetic diversity, allowing myriad threats to be neutralized through first recognizing foreign antigens. That diversity is also what makes the immune system so difficult to study. Recent advances in sequencing technology and computational biology, however, are giving researchers new tools to understand immune responses and immune-related diseases in greater detail.

      This convergence of genetics, immunology, and computation...

      Beyond CRISPR/Cas9: Understand, Choose, and Use the Right Genome Editing Tool
      by SEQadmin2



      CRISPR/Cas9 sparked the gene editing revolution for both research and therapeutics.1 But this system still showed severe issues that limited its applications. The most prominent were the heavy reliance on PAM sequences, delivery limitations, double-stranded breaks that prompt unintended edits and cell death, and editing inefficiency (both in targeting and in knock-in reliability).

      Despite this, “CRISPR helped turn genome editing from a specialized technique into
