Cytosine methylation and the ecology of intragenomic parasites

open access: yesTrends in Genetics, 1997
Most of the 5-methylcytosine in mammalian DNA resides in transposons, which are specialized intragenomic parasites that represent at least 35% of the genome. Transposon promoters are inactive when methylated and, over time, C-->T transition mutations at methylated sites destroy many transposons. Apart from that subset of genes subject to X inactivation

Utilising Uracil DNA Glycosylase to detect the presence of 5-Methylcytosine

open access: yes, 2014
DNA is regularly subjected to endogenous and exogenous reagents that cause mutations that can be detrimental to a cell if they are not repaired. One class of enzymes responsible for DNA repair is the family of DNA glycosylases and their role is to remove

Microsoft® Word™ Macro for Analysis of Cytosine Methylation by the Bisulfite Deamination Reaction

open access: yesBioTechniques, 2001
Cytosine methylation at CpG dinucleotides is an important control mechanism in development, differentiation, and neoplasia. Bisulfite genomic sequencing and its modifications have been developed to examine methylation at these CpG dinucleotides.

Tissue culture-induced transpositional activity of mPing is correlated with cytosine methylation in rice

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2009
Background mPing is an endogenous MITE in the rice genome, which is quiescent under normal conditions but can be induced towards mobilization under various stresses. The cellular mechanism responsible for modulating the activity of mPing remains unknown.

DNA methylation and mRNA expression of SYN III, a candidate gene for schizophrenia

open access: yesBMC Medical Genetics, 2008
Background The synapsin III (SYN III) gene on chromosome 22q is a candidate gene for schizophrenia susceptibility due to its chromosome location, neurological function, expression patterns and functional polymorphisms.
