Targeted DNA methylation in human cells using engineered dCas9-methyltransferases

Targeted DNA methylation in human cells using engineered dCas9-methyltransferases

Abstract Mammalian genomes exhibit complex patterns of gene expression regulated, in part, by DNA methylation. The advent of engineered DNA methyltransferases (MTases) to target DNA methylation to specific sites in the genome will accelerate many areas of biological research. However, targeted MTase...
