THE CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF THE TITLE COMPOUND (SYSTEMATIC NAME: methyl 3,4,5-trihydroxy-benzoate), C(8)H(8)O(5), is composed of essentially planar mol-ecules [maximum departures from the mean carbon and oxygen skeleton plane of 0.0348 (10) Å]. The H atoms of the three hydroxyl groups, which function as hydrogen-bond donors and acceptors simultaneously ...

SummaryThe enzymatic methylation or demethylation of naturally occurring compounds represents significant metabolic processes which have gained additional interest since the discovery of a mechanism by means of which methyl groups can be transferred from one compound to another.The capacity to transfer methyl groups is confined to a fewN‐and S ...

DNA methylation profiles unique to Kalahari KhoeSan individuals
Genomes of KhoeSan individuals of the Kalahari Desert provide the greatest understanding of single nucleotide diversity in the human genome. Compared with individuals in industrialized environments, the KhoeSan have a unique foraging and hunting ...

DNA methylation is not just for basic scientists any more. There is a growing awareness in the medical field that having the correct pattern of genomic methylation is essential for healthy cells and organs. If methylation patterns are not properly established or maintained, disorders as diverse as mental retardation, immune deficiency, and sporadic or ...

Differential methylation pattern in pubertal girls associated with biochemical premature adrenarche
Biochemical premature adrenarche is defined by elevated serum DHEAS [≥40 μg/dL] before age 8 y in girls. This condition is receiving more attention due to its association with obesity, hyperinsulinemia, dyslipidemia, and polycystic ovary syndrome ...

A striking feature of mammalian genomes is the paucity of the CG dinucleotide. There are approximately 20,000 regions termed CpG islands where CGs cluster. This represents 5% of all CGs and 1% of the genome. CpG islands are typically unmethylated and are often promoters for housekeeping genes.

Analysis of SDC2 and SEPT9 promoters methylation in plasma cfDNA to detect colorectal and precancerous lesions [PDF]
Aim: Analysis of circulating free DNA (cfDNA) is now broadly used to diagnose, assess treatment response, and recurrence of various tumor types. Detection of aberrant cfDNA methylation in plasma is considered as one of the promising approaches for early ...
