There are three different types of DNA methylation in plants: CG, CHH (where H is any base except G), and CHG. In Arabidopsis, CG methylation is found on some genes, but primarily on repeat sequences ...

In a post-hoc study of 777 Swiss participants, 1 g of omega-3 daily slowed aging on three of four DNA methylation clocks -- ...

The methylation of plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA) has emerged as a valuable diagnostic and prognostic biomarker in various cancers including colorectal cancer (CRC). Currently, there are no biomarkers ...

Dunn, recently carried out a study exploring how DNA methylation, an epigenetic modification that entails the addition of a methyl group to the DNA, contributes to the well-documented relationship ...

The epigenetic measurements will be carried out using Next Generation BiSulfite Amplicon Sequencing (BSAS) to determine methylation states. We will focus on imprinted regions of the genome. These are ...

Methylation is one of the more prevalent chemical modifications that histones undergo. Researchers have previously found that the methylation of one particular location, lysine-4, on histone H3 ...

DNA methylation is a fundamental epigenetic mechanism in which a methyl group is added onto a nucleotide, commonly cytosine. DNA methylation affects many biological processes, including gene ...
