DNA methylation is one of the most extensively studied epigenetic marks. It is involved in
transcriptional gene silencing and plays important roles during mammalian development. Its …

DNA methylation is of paramount importance for mammalian embryonic development. DNA
methylation has numerous functions: it is implicated in the repression of transposons and …

Methylation of the cytosine base in DNA, DNA methylation, is an essential epigenetic mark
in mammals that contributes to the regulation of transcription. Several advances have been …

DNA methylation in mammals is a key epigenetic modification essential to normal genome
regulation and development. DNA methylation patterns are established during early …

Methylation of cytosines can mediate epigenetic gene silencing and is the only known DNA
modification in eukaryotes. Recent efforts to map DNA methylation across mammalian …

DNA methylation is an essential epigenetic mark whose role in gene regulation and its
dependency on genomic sequence and environment are not fully understood. In this study …

One of the most critical epigenetic signatures present in the genome of higher eukaryotes is
the methylation of DNA at the C-5 position of the cytosine ring. Based on the sites of DNA …

DNA methylation is an essential part of the epigenome chromatin modification network,
which also comprises several covalent histone protein post-translational modifications. All …

Methylation of cytosines is the key epigenetic modification of DNA in eukaryotes and is
associated with a repressed chromatin state and inhibition of gene expression. The …

Genetic, biochemical and cytological studies on DNA methylation in several eukaryotic
organisms have resulted in leaps of understanding in the past three years. Discoveries of …
