Chapter 10, Problem 39RE
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The role of methylation of
Concept introduction:
DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) involves the addition of a methyl group to the DNA molecule and it can change the activity of that DNA segment without changing the sequence.
Gene transcription is repressed when the methylation occurs in the promoter region. The methylation is very important for the normal development of an individual.
