DNA methylation and Rett syndrome.

Human molecular genetics - 15 Oct 2003

Kriaucionis Skirmantas, Bird Adrian

Abstract excerpt

Methylation of cytosine in human DNA has been studied for over 60 years, but has only recently been confirmed as an important player in human disease. Rett syndrome is a neurological disorder caused by mutations in the MeCP2 protein, which has been shown to bind methylated DNA and repress transcr...
