There are three different types of DNA methylation in plants: CG, CHH (where H is any base except G), and CHG. In Arabidopsis, CG methylation is found on some genes, but primarily on repeat sequences ...

To compact the DNA, plants use various epigenetic marks, including DNA methylation and modifications of the histone proteins ...

may be used to perform random amplification for microarray analysis as described in Steps 17–27 of the protocol for profiling of DNA methylation patterns 6. The amplified product may be analyzed ...

However, there are certain hurdles to overcome. One significant challenge is the technical challenges in methylation analysis. The biggest problem for DNA methylation is diversity among cells produced ...

DNA methylation is a fundamental epigenetic mechanism in which a methyl group is added onto a nucleotide, commonly cytosine. DNA methylation affects many biological processes, including gene ...

This rather complex six-protein system is interesting because it combines classical DNA methylation with new antiviral mechanisms. In this study, we tried to find out how BREX distinguishes ...
