Arturas Petronis and colleagues present the first genome-wide study of interindividual differences in DNA methylation through genome-scale DNA methylation profiling in tissues from monozygotic and dizygotic twins. The data showed that dizygotic co-twins have higher degrees of epigenetic differences than monozygotic co-twins, which the authors attribute at least partially to epigenetic, as opposed to genetic, differences in the zygotes.
