DNA methylation is crucial for normal development and cellular differentiation in many large-
genome eukaryotes. The small tropical freshwater fish Danio rerio (zebrafish) has recently …

DNA methylation reprogramming, the erasure of DNA methylation patterns shortly after
fertilization and their reestablishment during subsequent early development, is essential for …

DNA methylation on cytosine in vertebrates such as zebrafish serves to silence gene
expression by interfering with the binding of certain transcription factors and through the …

DNA methylation is dynamic through the life of an organism. Previous studies have primarily
focused on DNA methylation changes during very early embryogenesis. In this study, global …

Methylation of cytosines in the CG context (mCG) is the most abundant DNA modification in
vertebrates that plays crucial roles in cellular differentiation and identity. After fertilization …

The DNA methylation landscape is dynamically patterned during development and distinct
methylation patterns distinguish healthy from diseased cells. However, whether tissue …

Zebrafish (Danio rerio) is a vertebrate model organism that is widely used for studying a
plethora of biological questions, including developmental processes, effects of external cues …

DNA methylation is an important epigenetic modification that has been repeatedly implied in
organismal adaptation. However, many previous studies that have linked DNA methylation …

DNA methylation is a prevalent epigenetic modification in vertebrates, and it has been
shown to be involved the regulation of gene expression and embryo development. However …

Epigenetic mechanisms are an underappreciated and often ignored component of an
organism's response to environmental change and may underlie many types of phenotypic …
