DNA methylation in the Alcohol dehydrogenase-1 gene of maize.
Plant molecular biology - 1 Jul 1990
Walbot V, Warren C
Abstract excerpt
Using a battery of methylation-sensitive restriction enzymes, cytosine methylation at 23 sites in a 7.6 kb region surrounding the Alcohol dehydrogenase-1 (Adh1) gene was measured in DNA prepared from immature maize cobs. Both the 5' upstream region and the entire coding region were hypomethylated in the two alleles examined. Methylation in Adh1 is independent of changes in Mutator transposable element...
