Cytosine methylation in gene-silencing mechanisms.

P S Chomet1.   

Abstract

Cytosine methylation is associated with gene-silencing mechanisms in a number of eukaryotic organisms. Recent studies directed at the involvement of methylation in promoter inactivation, X-chromosome and duplicate sequence inactivation and in chromatin structure changes, are presented.
