paper alert ๐จFiguring out the cellular composition of tissues is essential for understanding diseases. DNA methylation analysis is particularly suited for this task, as deconvolution algorithms can untangle mixture signals from bulk samples into their individual components.

For sequencing-based DNA methylomes, we also assessed how sequencing depth and uniformity affect performance. This resulted in a nuanced set of recommendations for optimal deconvolution, depending on the underlying research question and goal.
