MechanismsoftranscriptionalrepressionbyDNAmethylation

Tumorigenesis is known to be a multistep process in which defects in various cancer genes accumulate. Epigenetic modifications, most importantly DNA methylation events, are frequently involved in transcriptional changes in both tumor suppressor genes and oncogenes. Methylation of cytosine at CpG dinucleotides is a common feature of a higher eukaryotic genomes. DNA methylation in the promoter regions of genes is gener......阅读全文
