Comprehensive human cell-type methylation atlas reveals origins of circulating cell-free DNA in health and disease

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Methylation patterns of circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) contain rich information about recent cell death events in the body. Here, we present an approach for unbiased determination of the tissue origins of cfDNA, using a reference methylation atlas of ...

Interplay between circadian and other transcription factors—Implications for cycling transcriptome reprogramming

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This perspective highlights emerging insights into how the circadian transcription factor CLOCK:BMAL1 regulates chromatin architecture, cooperates with other transcription factors, and coordinates enhancer dynamics. We propose an updated framework for how circadian transcription factors operate within dynamic and multifactorial chromatin landscapes ...

Methylation status of Vitamin D receptor gene promoter in benign and malignant adrenal tumors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We previously showed a decreased expression of vitamin D receptor (VDR) mRNA/protein in a small group of adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) tissues, suggesting the loss of a protective role of VDR against malignant cell growth in this cancer type ...

Shedding light upon the complex net of genome size, genome composition and environment in chordates

open access: yesThe European Zoological Journal, 2020
The nucleotype theory has been advanced on the basis of studies regarding genome size and composition in various plant and animal species, i.e. the influence that genome can have on the phenotype independently of the informational content of DNA.

Identification of Methylation Immune Subtypes and Establishment of a Prognostic Signature for Gliomas Using Immune-Related Genes

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
DNA methylation patterns are essential in understanding carcinogenesis. However, the relationship between DNA methylation and the immune process has not been clearly established—this study aimed at elucidating the interaction between glioma and DNA ...

DNA Methylation [PDF]

open access: yesEcoSal Plus, 2009
The DNA of Escherichia coli contains 19,120 6-methyladenines and 12,045 5-methylcytosines in addition to the four regular bases, and these are formed by the postreplicative action of three DNA methyltransferases. The majority of the methylated bases are formed by the Dam and Dcmmethyltransferases encoded by the

The role of m6A RNA methylation in human cancer

open access: yesMolecular Cancer, 2019
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is identified as the most common, abundant and conserved internal transcriptional modification, especially within eukaryotic messenger RNAs (mRNAs).

Disordered but rhythmic—the role of intrinsic protein disorder in eukaryotic circadian timing

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Unstructured domains known as intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are present in nearly every part of the eukaryotic core circadian oscillator. IDRs enable many diverse inter‐ and intramolecular interactions that support clock function. IDR conformations are highly tunable by post‐translational modifications and environmental conditions, which ...
