Hairpin-bisulfite sequencing of cells exposed to decitabine documents the process of DNA demethylation

Although the mechanism of DNA demethylating drugs has been understood for many years, the direct effect of these drugs on methylation of the complementary strands of DNA has not been formally demonstrated. By using hairpin-bisulphite sequencing, we describe the kinetics and pattern of DNA methylatio...
