Methylation: An Ineluctable Biochemical and Physiological Process Essential to the Transmission of Life
Methylation is a universal biochemical process which covalently adds methyl groups to a variety of molecular targets. It plays a critical role in two major global regulatory mechanisms, epigenetic modifications and imprinting, via methyl tagging on histones and DNA. During reproduction, the two geno...
