Gilbert's conjecture: the search for DNA (cytosine-5) demethylases and the emergence of new functions for eukaryotic DNA (cytosine-5) methyltransferases.

Journal of molecular biology - 8 Sept 2000

Smith S S

Abstract excerpt

In 1985 Walter Gilbert challenged members of the DNA methylation community assembled at a National Institutes of Health meeting organized by Giulio Cantoni and Ahron Razin with the following words: "The most exciting aspect about the methyl groups on DNA is the thought that they might provide a locally inherited change in a DNA structure. However, for that to be interesting, those changes have to be different in...
