Tet proteins: on track towards DNA demethylation? [PDF]
Dynamic DNA methylation is a prerequisite for many developmental processes and maintenance of cellular integrity. In mammals however, mechanisms of active DNA demethylation have for long been elusive.

Short- and long-term effects of 56Fe irradiation on cognition and hippocampal DNA methylation and gene expression. [PDF]
BackgroundAstronauts are exposed to 56Fe ions that may pose a significant health hazard during and following prolonged missions in deep space. We showed previously that object recognition requiring the hippocampus, a structure critical for cognitive ...

Functional Implications of DNA Methylation in Adipose Biology. [PDF]
The twin epidemics of obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D) are a serious health, social, and economic issue. The dysregulation of adipose tissue biology is central to the development of these two metabolic disorders, as adipose tissue plays a pivotal role ...

Functional analysis of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine
Mammalian DNA methylathion is a chemical reaction catalyzed by DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) and involves the addition of a methyl group from the methyl donor SAM to the carbon 5 position of cytosine (C) in a CpG dinucleotide. Specifically, DNA methylation is essential for normal development and is involved in numerous key mechanisms such as genomic ...
