Local CpG density affects the trajectory and variance of age-associated DNA methylation changes

BACKGROUND: DNA methylation is an epigenetic mark associated with the repression of gene promoters. Its pattern in the genome is disrupted with age and these changes can be used to statistically predict age with epigenetic clocks. Altered rates of aging inferred from these clocks are observed in hum...
