DNA Methylation is a crucial epigenetic process that plays a vital role in regulating gene expression, development, and disease processes. It involves the addition of a methyl group to the cytosine nucleotide of DNA, which can alter gene activity without changing the underlying DNA sequence.
Why Study DNA Methylation?
Understanding DNA Methylation is essential for several reasons. Firstly, it provides insights into the complex mechanisms that control gene expression and development. By studying DNA Methylation patterns, researchers can identify how genes are regulated and how these patterns contribute to cellular differentiation and specialization.
