This schematic illustrates how transposable elements, derived from functional RNAs or retroviruses, shape the human genome and act as regulatory DNA elements. It highlights their essential roles in ...

Global DNA-methylation is affected in G- cells. Global methylation level analysis in G− and G+ condition. (A) Bart chart representing the methylation level of individual sample (y-axis, 1 = 100%) in ...

Transposable elements are stretches of DNA that can move around the genome. Many of these DNA sequences originate from long ago, when viruses inserted their genetic material into our ancestors' ...

Transposable elements (TEs) are DNA sequences involved in the epigenetic regulation of tumors. KDM1A is an epigenetic regulator overexpressed in liver cancer that suppresses the methylation of histone ...

DNA can also be demethylated, either through passive or active processes. Passive DNA demethylation occurs when the methylation pattern is not replenished during DNA replication and gradually ...
