DNA methylation in eukaryotes.

Current opinion in genetics & development - 1 Apr 1995

Martienssen R A, Richards E J

Abstract excerpt

Recent advances have expanded our understanding of the processes underlying the establishment, maintenance, and elaboration of DNA methylation patterns in eukaryotes. The functional significance of DNA methylation is sought in a comparison of results on a variety of epigenetic phenomena in different eukaryotes. The recent development of DNA methylation mutants in mice, Neurospora, and Arabadopsis will allow...
