# dmrseq: Inference for differentially methylated regions (DMRs) from bisulfite sequencing

A central question in the analysis of bisulfite sequencing data 
is to detect regions (collections of 
neighboring CpGs) with systematic differences between conditions, 
as compared to within-condition variability. These so-called *Differentially
Methylated Regions* (DMRs) are thought to be more informative than single CpGs 
in terms of of biological function.

The package **dmrseq** 
provides a rigorous permutation-based approach to
detect and perform inference for differential methylation by use of 
generalized least squares models that account for inter-individual and 
inter-CpG variability to generate region-level statistics that can be
comparable across the genome. The framework performs well even
on samples as small as two per group.

## Installation

**dmrseq** is available on 
[Bioconductor](https://bioconductor.org/packages/dmrseq). You can install
it with R version 3.5.0 or higher with the following commands:

```
install.packages("BiocManager")
BiocManager::install("dmrseq")
```

## Getting started

See the vignette for information on how to use the package to perform
typical methylation analysis workflows.
