Large-scale epigenome mapping by the NIH Roadmap Epigenomics Project, the ENCODE Consortium and the International Human Epigenome Consortium (IHEC) produces genome-wide DNA methylation data at one base-pair resolution. We examine how such data can be made open-access while balancing appropriate interpretation and genomic privacy. We propose guidelines for data release that both reduce ambiguity in the interpretation of open-access data and limit immediate access to genetic variation data that are made available through controlled access.
美国国立卫生研究院表观基因组学路线图计划、DNA元件百科全书计划(ENCODE)以及国际人类表观基因组联盟(IHEC)开展的大规模表观基因组图谱绘制工作,以单碱基对分辨率生成了全基因组DNA甲基化数据。我们探讨了如何在平衡适当解读和基因组隐私的同时,使这些数据能够开放获取。我们提出了数据发布指南,既减少开放获取数据解读中的模糊性,又限制对通过受控访问提供的遗传变异数据的直接访问。
