I just wanted to confirm that I have understood these numbers correctly. Below is a part of log file obtained after mapping; using bs_seeker2-align.py
Methylated C in mapped reads
mCG 67.190%
mCHG 0.836%
mCHH 0.851%
My understanding is that within the mapped reads; 67.190% of cytosines present in CG context are methylated. 0.836% of cytosines present in CHG context are methylated and so on.
These numbers have nothing to do with the level of methylation, right? We get the methylation level only after calling methylation; using bs_seeker2-call_methylation.py
Hello Weilong,

Please let me know if I am missing something.
Thank you, Suraj
