Researchers have developed the first comprehensive atlas of allele-specific DNA methylation across 39 human cell types, revealing a complex landscape of epigenetic regulation. The study identified ...

In recent years, the study of epigenetics and its role in disease has increased dramatically. DNA methylation, which influences the ability of proteins to bind the DNA and thereby regulates gene ...

The epigenetic modification, DNA methylation, is characterized by 5-methylcytosine (5-mC) and found in specific genomic locations, most notably regulatory regions such as promoters and enhancers.

In a recent study published in the journal Science Advances, researchers estimated the maximal longevity, gestation period, and sexual maturity age using deoxyribonucleic methylation (DNAm) by ...

Early detection of prostate cancer could soon be simplified, thanks to a University of Otago – Ōtākou Whakaihu Waka project.

Watchmaker Genomics today announced the launch of TAPS+, a next-generation technology that unites genetic and epigenetic readouts from the same DNA molecule. By capturing multiple biological ...

In the high-stakes world of cancer diagnosis, getting the right answer quickly can mean everything. When a brain tumor shows up in an MRI image near delicate structures, even a simple biopsy might put ...
