Existence and possible roles of independent non-CpG methylation in mammalian brain

2020-01-30

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background DNA methylations at non-CpG sites (mCpHs) yield weak enrichment signals and co-localize with methylated CpGs (mCpGs). Accordingly, they are thought to represent byproducts of hyperactive methyltransferases. However, recent studies revealed that mCpHs are highly cell type-specific and associated with cellular functions in mammal, although their distributional and functional de...
