Not all genes are active at all times. DNA methylation is one of several epigenetic mechanisms that cells use to control gene expression. This straightforward experiment demonstrated that it was ...

Research published in Nature Ecology & Evolution introduces a novel method for inferring DNA methylation patterns in non-skeletal tissues from ancient specimens, providing new insights into human ...

The global DNA methylation market is on the verge of a significant surge, with an anticipated market value of USD 1437.5 ...

In early embryogenesis, DNA is largely devoid of methylation (top left). Post implantation, de novo methylation begins (red circles), mediated primarily by DNA (cytosine-5-)-methyltransferase ...

The Technion-Israel Institute of Technology will award the Harvey Prize in Science and Technology to Prof. Stephen Baylin, Prof. Peter Jones, and Prof. Andrew Feinberg for their groundbreaking work in ...

Transportation noise poses serious risks to cardiovascular health, causing inflammation, oxidative stress, and circadian ...

Maintaining good cardiovascular health may affect a key process in how cells age, allowing people who are genetically ...

This important study by Bi and colleagues employed a clever genetics screen to uncover the role of the GidB rRNA methylase in translation fidelity, under certain conditions, in Mycobacterium smegmatis ...

Researchers analyze various aspects of gene regulation, among which are the three-dimensional structure of the genome and DNA methylation, which differ for different cell types and play significant ...

For example, DNA methylation modifies gene expression without altering the nucleotide sequence. A well-studied DNA methylation-based phenomenon is genomic imprinting (ie, genotype-independent ...

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a prevalent inherited cardiac disease marked by left ventricular hypertrophy, often due ...
