DNA Methylation

DNA methylation is a method by that methyl groups are added to the DNA molecule. Methylation will modify the activity of a DNA section without ever-changing the sequence. When placed in a gene promoter, DNA methylation usually acts to repress gene transcription. DNA methylation is important for normal development and is related to a variety of key processes including genomic imprinting, X-chromosome inactivation, repression of permutable elements, aging and carcinogenesis.
