Plant-RRBS, a bisulfite and next-generation sequencing-based methylome profiling method enriching for coverage of cytosine positions

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2017
Background Cytosine methylation in plant genomes is important for the regulation of gene transcription and transposon activity. Genome-wide methylomes are studied upon mutation of the DNA methyltransferases, adaptation to environmental stresses or during

High sensitivity mapping of methylated cytosines [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 1994
An understanding of DNA methylation and its potential role in gene control during development, aging and cancer has been hampered by a lack of sensitive methods which can resolve exact methylation patterns from only small quantities of DNA. We have now developed a genomic sequencing technique which is capable of detecting every methylated cytosine on ...

Cytosine Methylation: Quantitation by Automated Genomic Sequencing and GENESCANTM Analysis

open access: yesBioTechniques, 1996
Bisulfite treatment and PCR amplification of genomic DNA permits the methylation analysis of any cytosine residue in a target sequence. By cloning and sequencing the PCR product, the methylation of individual molecules can be determined, whereas direct ...

Global Analysis of Cytosine Methylation and Proteome Under Cold Treatment in Brassica napus

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture, 2014
Cytosine methylation/demethylation plays pivotal roles in regulating gene expression at a genome-wide level. However, limited reports are available to reveal correlating changes of cytosine methylation and proteomic expression in Brassica napus so far ...

Dynamics of Methylated Cytosine Flipping by UHRF1 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Chemical Society, 2017
DNA methylation patterns, which are critical for gene expression, are replicated by DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) and ubiquitin-like containing PHD and RING finger domains 1 (UHRF1) proteins. This replication is initiated by the recognition of hemimethylated CpG sites and further flipping of methylated cytosines (mC) by the Set and Ring Associated ...

Systematic prediction of DNA shape changes due to CpG methylation explains epigenetic effects on protein–DNA binding

open access: yesEpigenetics & Chromatin, 2018
Background DNA shape analysis has demonstrated the potential to reveal structure-based mechanisms of protein–DNA binding. However, information about the influence of chemical modification of DNA is limited.

Cytosine methylation of the sequence GATC in a mycoplasma [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1982
Mycoplasma virus L2 is subject to host-specific restriction and modification in Acholeplasma laidlawii strains JA1 and K2. We have examined the DNAs from both host cells and viruses propagated on these strains with respect to susceptibility to cleavage by restriction endonucleases and for DNA base modifications.

Epigenetic Changes in Host Ribosomal DNA Promoter Induced by an Asymptomatic Plant Virus Infection

open access: yesBiology, 2020
DNA cytosine methylation is one of the main epigenetic mechanisms in higher eukaryotes and is considered to play a key role in transcriptional gene silencing.

From trans-methylation to cytosine methylation: Evolution of the methylation hypothesis of schizophrenia [PDF]

open access: yesEpigenetics, 2009
The role of methylation in the history of psychiatry has traversed a storied path. The original trans-methylation hypothesis was proposed at a time when chlorpromazine had been synthesized but not yet marketed as an antipsychotic (Thorazine).
