CpG Islands, Gene Expression and Pseudogenization: A Case for a Potential Trilogy
Background: The promoters of mammalian genes contain clusters of CG dinucleotides known as CpG islands. Most mammalian housekeeping genes predominantly contain CpG islands (CGIs), facilitating gene transcription. Numerous studies have explored the physiological implications of the relationship betwe...
