Abstract excerpt
Epigenetic regulation of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE)-particularly CpG methylation within its promoter-may modulate gene expression and skeletal muscle adaptation to endurance exercise, complementing the known effects of the ACE I/D polymorphism (rs1799752). We hypothesized that ACE promoter methylation correlates with markers of aerobic metabolism and interacts with genotype and enzyme activity to...
