The Roles of Human DNA Methyltransferases and Their Isoforms in Shaping the Epigenome

open access: yesGenes, 2019
A DNA sequence is the hard copy of the human genome and it is a driving force in determining the physiological processes in an organism. Concurrently, the chemical modification of the genome and its related histone proteins is dynamically involved in ...

Environmental Enrichment Reverses Histone Methylation Changes in the Aged Hippocampus and Restores Age-Related Memory Deficits

open access: yesBiology, 2015
A decline in long-term memory (LTM) formation is a common feature of the normal aging process, which corresponds with abnormal expression of memory-related genes in the aged hippocampus. Epigenetic modulation of chromatin structure is required for proper

Targeting Viral Methyltransferases: An Approach to Antiviral Treatment for ssRNA Viruses

open access: yesViruses, 2022
Methyltransferase enzymes have been associated with different processes within cells and viruses. Specifically, within viruses, methyltransferases are used to form the 5′cap-0 structure for optimal evasion of the host innate immune system. In this paper,

Critical roles of protein methyltransferases and demethylases in the regulation of embryonic stem cell fate

open access: yesEpigenetics, 2017
Accumulating evidence has recently shown that protein methyltransferases and demethylases are crucial regulators in either maintaining pluripotent states or inducing differentiation of embryonic stem cells. These enzymes control pluripotent signatures by

Structural basis for DNMT3A-mediated de novo DNA methylation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
DNA methylation by de novo DNA methyltransferases 3A (DNMT3A) and 3B (DNMT3B) at cytosines is essential for genome regulation and development. Dysregulation of this process is implicated in various diseases, notably cancer.

Methionine metabolism and methyltransferases in the regulation of aging and lifespan extension across species

open access: yesAging Cell, 2019
Methionine restriction (MetR) extends lifespan across different species and exerts beneficial effects on metabolic health and inflammatory responses. In contrast, certain cancer cells exhibit methionine auxotrophy that can be exploited for therapeutic ...
