Relationship between methylation status of vitamin D-related genes, vitamin D levels, and methyl-donor biochemistry
Vitamin D is known for its role in the regulation of gene expression via the vitamin D receptor, a nuclear transcription factor. More recently, a role for vitamin D in regulating DNA methylation has been identified as an additional mechanism of modulation of gene expression. How methylation status i...
