Methyl 2-methyl-3,5-dinitrobenzoate [PDF]
In the title compound, C(9)H(8)N(2)O(6), the methyl ester group is almost planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.002 Å) and is oriented at a dihedral angle of 24.27 (16) ° with respect to the benzene ring. The nitro groups make dihedral angles of 4.2 (5) ° and 60.21 (11) ° with the benzene ring.

Underestimated effect of intragenic HIV-1 DNA methylation on viral transcription in infected individuals [PDF]
Background: The HIV-1 proviral genome harbors multiple CpG islands (CpGIs), both in the promoter and intragenic regions. DNA methylation in the promoter region has been shown to be heavily involved in HIV-1 latency regulation in cultured cells.

Synthesis of (.+-.)-methyl epijasmonate and (.+-.)-methyl cucurbate. [PDF]
A novel synthesis of ( ± )-methyl epijasomonate (2) and the first synthesis of ( ± )-methyl cucurbate (4) were achieved starting from 2-allylcyclohexane-1,3-dione (8). The synthetic epimer 2 had a stronger jasmin flavor than the trans-isomer 1 with 95% purity.

The structure of the title compound, C(9)H(10)O(2), is related to that of 4-methyl-phenyl 4-methyl-benzoate and ethyl-ene di-4-methyl-benzoate showing similar bond parameters. The mol-ecule is planar, the dihedral angle between the aromatic ring and the -COOMe group being 0.95 (6)°. The cystal structure exhibits inter-molecular C-H⋯O contacts that link

Decitabine impact on the endocytosis regulator RhoA, the folate carriers RFC1 and FOLR1, and the glucose transporter GLUT4 in human tumors. [PDF]
BackgroundIn 31 solid tumor patients treated with the demethylating agent decitabine, we performed tumor biopsies before and after the first cycle of decitabine and used immunohistochemistry (IHC) to assess whether decitabine increased expression of ...

Epigenetic marks as the link between environment and development: examination of the associations between attachment, socioeconomic status, and methylation of the SLC6A4 gene. [PDF]
BackgroundEpigenetic processes act as a link between environment and individual development. This pilot study examined the association between socioeconomic status (SES), attachment, and methylation of the promoter region of the serotonin transporter ...

SUVH1, a Su(var)3-9 family member, promotes the expression of genes targeted by DNA methylation. [PDF]
Transposable elements are found throughout the genomes of all organisms. Repressive marks such as DNA methylation and histone H3 lysine 9 (H3K9) methylation silence these elements and maintain genome integrity.
