Abstract

See full text

Methods for detecting the methylation status of a target genomic locus are provided. Methods described allow for simultaneous assay of multiple cytosines in a target genomic locus. Assays of multiple cytosines in a target genomic locus provide detection of an aggregate cytosine methylation state of the target genomic locus. Methods to detect methylation of a genomic locus associated with a disease or disorder characterized by aberrant methylation of the genomic locus, such as, but not limited to, Fragile X mental retardation syndrome, Prader-Willi syndrome, Angelman sydrome, Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome, and Russell-Silverman syndrome, diabetes, cancer, multiple sclerosis or schizophrenia are described herein.
