CyMATE, Cytosine Methylation Analysis Tool for Everybody, is an online tool suitable for analyzing data from bisulfite sequencing independent of the sequence context of the C residues (that means also outside CpG). This was developed mainly for plant DNA analysis, but there is growing evidence that non-CpG methylation occurs also in other organisms. The tool helps to quantify mC in different perspectives and gives nice, colorful graphic outputs in pdf format.
The online software, including a user guide and sample files, is freely available for use at the GMI website:http://www.gmi.oeaw.ac.at/en/cymate-index/.
