DNA methylation: a molecular lock.

Z Siegfried1, H Cedar.   

Abstract

In mammals, the promoters of expressed genes are generally unmethylated, whereas those of genes that are not expressed are methylated. Two recent papers help to explain the mechanism by which methylation modulates gene expression.
