Widespread conservation and lineage-specific diversification of genome-wide DNA methylation patterns across arthropods

2020-01-27

Abstract excerpt

Cytosine methylation is an ancient epigenetic modification yet its function and extent within genomes is highly variable across eukaryotes. In mammals, methylation controls transposable elements and regulates the promoters of genes. In insects, DNA methylation is generally restricted to a small subset of transcribed genes, with both intergenic regions and transposable elements (TEs) depleted of methylation. The ev...
