DNA methylation profiling of the human major histocompatibility complex: A pilot study for the Human Epigenome Project [PDF]
The Human Epigenome Project aims to identify, catalogue, and interpret genome-wide DNA methylation phenomena. Occurring naturally on cytosine bases at cytosine-guanine dinucleotides, DNA methylation is intimately involved in diverse biological processes ...

Molecular Analysis of N6-Methyladenine Patterns in \u3cem\u3eTetrahymena thermophila\u3c/em\u3e Nuclear DNA [PDF]
We have cloned two DNA fragments containing 5\u27-GATC-3\u27 sites at which the adenine is methylated in the macronucleus of the ciliate Tetrahymena thermophila. Using these cloned fragments as molecular probes, we analyzed the maintenance of methylation

DNA methylation at the mu-1 opioid receptor gene (OPRM1) promoter predicts preoperative, acute, and chronic postsurgical pain after spine fusion. [PDF]
INTRODUCTION:The perioperative pain experience shows great interindividual variability and is difficult to predict. The mu-1 opioid receptor gene (OPRM1) is known to play an important role in opioid-pain pathways.
