        The Help Assay

        Genomic representations using ligation-mediated PCR have been used successfully as the foundation for a number of high-throughput assays. Hpa II tiny fragment enrichment by ligation-mediated PCR (HELP) is an example of the use of such representations to study cytosine methylation in the genome. The HELP assay differs from most other assays testing cytosine methylation because of its positive representation of hypomethylated DNA in the genome, whereas other assays infer the presence of hypomethylated sequences by the absence of signal, for which there can be confounding technical reasons. Hypomethylated sequences represent the minority of the genome and tend to be located at unique sequences with functionally interesting properties such as transcription start sites. By performing a comparative genomic hybridization using an Msp I representation from the same DNA sample, we represent all potential loci that could be generated by Hpa II in the situation of global hypomethylation; in practice, Hpa II generates a subset of loci from this population, allowing us to discriminate hypomethylated loci (represented by both Hpa II and Msp I) from methylated loci (represented by Msp I only).
