The methylome refers to the overall pattern of [[DNA methylation]], an epigenetic modification that can affect [[gene expression]], in a cell or tissue. DNA methylation involves the addition of a [[methyl]] group to the [[cytosine]] base of a [[DNA]] molecule, typically in a region called a [[CpG island]], and can be influenced by a variety of genetic and environmental factors. Changes in the methylome have been associated with a range of health and disease states, including cancer, neurological and psychiatric disorders, and aging. Recent advances in sequencing and bioinformatics technologies have enabled a more comprehensive analysis of the methylome and may provide valuable insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying these conditions. methylome.txt Last modified: 2024/06/07 02:51by 127.0.0.1
