Summary

Description
English: In a normal cell, the CpG island is hypomethylated, as can be seen from the unfilled stubs, but the genome, in general, is methylated, as can be seen from the filled in stubs. In contrast, in the cancer cell, the CpG island is more likely to be methylated, and the rest of the genome is hypomethylated. There is a swap of where DNA methylation is found between a normal cell and a cancer cell.
