We have studied the interaction of EcoRI endonuclease with oligonucleotides containing
GAATTC sites bearing one or two adenine‐N6‐methyl groups, which would be in steric …

Enzymes of the ten-eleven translocation family are considered to play an important role in
the regulation of DNA methylation patterns by converting 5-methylcytosine to 5 …

Since our previous review (De Groot and Hochberg, 1993), a large number of studies
regarding the role of genomic imprinting in normal development, and in nonneoplastic and …

The extent of cytosine methylation in the DNAs of four basidiomycetes and two ascomycetes
has been determined by RP-HPLC. The highest levels of 5-methyldeoxycytidine (5mdC) …

There have been numerous genetic and epigenetic datasets generated for the study of
complex disease including neurodegenerative disease. However, analysis of such data …

The nef reading frame overlaps about 70% of the U3 region of the 3'long terminal repeat
(LTR) in primate lentiviruses. We investigated the functional role of these overlapping U3 …

The use of transgenic or virus-infected plants to produce vitally needed vaccines for
developing nations has been made possible by rapid advances in plant molecular biology …

DNA methylation is one of the many hypotheses proposed to explain the observed
deficiency in CpG dinucleotides in a variety of genomes covering a wide taxonomic …

Publisher Summary The evident specialization of maternal and paternal genomes in
mammals has been defined as genomic imprinting and is thought to arise during …

Multi-copy transgenes are poorly expressed in plants, Drosophila and mammals; this
repression is relieved by reducing copy number, leading to chromatin remodeling and …
