dnaEPICO: Analysis Pipeline for Illumina DNA Methylation Array Data


Bioconductor version: Development (3.24)

A modular and reproducible workflow for preprocessing and analysing Illumina DNA methylation array data from the EPICv2, EPIC, and 450K platforms. It supports quality control, probe filtering, cell-type deconvolution, phenotype preparation, CpG-wise generalised linear models with optional term-level omnibus F tests, longitudinal mixed-effects models using 'lmerTest'/'lme4' or 'nlme', optional 'nlme' residual correlation structures, and automated reports. The workflow uses established Bioconductor tools, including 'minfi', 'ENmix', and 'wateRmelon', and runs locally or in high-performance computing environments.
