Genome-wide impact of hydrogen peroxide on maintenance DNA methylation in replicating cells
Abstract Background Environmental factors, such as oxidative stress, have the potential to modify the epigenetic landscape of cells. We have previously shown that DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) activity can be inhibited by sublethal doses of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). However, site-specific changes in...
