The absence of C-5 DNA methylation in <i>Leishmania donovani</i> allows DNA enrichment from complex samples

2019-08-28

Abstract excerpt

Cytosine C5 methylation is an important epigenetic control mechanism in a wide array of Eukaryotic organisms and generally carried out by proteins of C-5 DNA methyltransferase family (DNMTs). In several protozoans the status of this mechanism remains elusive, such as in Leishmania , the causative agent of the disease leishmaniasis in humans and a wide array of vertebrate animals. In this work, we show that the L...
