Islet cells share promoter hypomethylation independently of expression, but exhibit cell-type–specific methylation in enhancers

DNA methylation at promoters is an important determinant of gene expression. Earlier studies suggested that the insulin gene promoter is uniquely unmethylated in insulin-expressing pancreatic β-cells, providing a classic example of this paradigm. Here we show that islet cells expressing insulin, glu...
