Specific or not specific recruitment of DNMTs for DNA methylation, an epigenetic dilemma
Abstract Our current view of DNA methylation processes is strongly moving: First, even if it was generally admitted that DNMT3A and DNMT3B are associated with de novo methylation and DNMT1 is associated with inheritance DNA methylation, these distinctions are now not so clear. Secondly, since one de...
