Abstract excerpt
Understanding the role for DNA methylation in tumorigenesis has evolved from defining the location and extent of methylation in a variety of cancer-related genes to clarifying the functional and site-specific effects of aberrant methylation on gene expression. Our objectives were to characterize the functional effects of DNA methylation in the BRCA1 promoter and to clarify the functional status of the BRCA1 CRE...
