DNA methylation is the covalent addition of methyl groups to DNA bases, typically the cytosine of CpG dinucleotides. It is catalyzed by methyltransferase enzymes using a S-adenosyl methionine ...

PE is thought to result from a combination of factors, including inflammatory cytokines, trophoblast dysfunction, and environmental influences, which may trigger epigenetic changes, particularly DNA ...

Each of these bricks is made up of 24 nucleotides (including cytosine sites for methylation) and encodes one bit of information, creating a stable and readable set through advanced sequencing ...

A new study introduces a method to infer DNA methylation patterns in non-skeletal tissues from ancient DNA, offering insights into human evolution, particularly brain function. Using an algorithm with ...
