The MBD7 complex promotes expression of methylated transgenes without significantly altering their methylation status [PDF]
DNA methylation is associated with gene silencing in eukaryotic organisms. Although pathways controlling the establishment, maintenance and removal of DNA methylation are known, relatively little is understood about how DNA methylation influences gene ...

DNA methylation in melanoma immunotherapy: mechanisms and therapeutic opportunities [PDF]
Abnormal DNA methylation is a hallmark of cancer and a nearly universal feature of melanoma. DNA methylation plays well-appreciated melanoma cell-intrinsic roles, including silencing tumor-suppressor genes, regulating genomic stability, deregulating ...

SETDB1 is involved in postembryonic DNA methylation and gene silencing in Drosophila. [PDF]
DNA methylation is fundamental for the stability and activity of genomes. Drosophila melanogaster and vertebrates establish a global DNA methylation pattern of their genome during early embryogenesis. Large-scale analyses of DNA methylation patterns have

Influence of genetic background and tissue types on global DNA methylation patterns. [PDF]
Recent studies have shown a genetic influence on gene expression variation, chromatin, and DNA methylation. However, the effects of genetic background and tissue types on DNA methylation at the genome-wide level have not been characterized extensively ...
