  1. ...The mutational spectrum of non-CpG DNA varies with CpG content Jean-Claude Walser 1 and Anthony V. Furano 2 Section on Genomic Structure and Function, Laboratory of Molecular and Cellular Biology, National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney...
  2. ...increase in late-replicating regions (Watanabe et al. 2002; Stamatoyannopoulos et al. 2009). It was proposed that the increase in mutation rates in non-CpG and CpG sites results from a single mechanism, namely, an increase of DNA damage during replication (Stamatoyannopoulos et al. 2009). However...
  3. ...for this article.] In mammalian DNA, cytosines within CpG dinucleotides are heavily methylated throughout the , yet there are several discrete “islands” that contain a high frequency of unmethylated CpG sites. These are called CpG islands (CGI), and their identification has long been considered important...
  4. ...step of the method is based on the treatment of chromatin with the M.CviPI methyltransferase. This enzyme methylates Cs in the context of GpC dinucleotides. GpCm does not occur in the human (the vast majority of DNA methylation in the human is at CpG dinucleotides, not GpC dinucleotides) and therefore...
  5. ...methylation arrays, which provide the DNA methylation levels of CpG dinucleotides primarily in promoter and regulatory regions (Bibikova et al. 2011). We reduced the data based on overall variance using the 500 most variable probes for cluster analysis and performed unsupervised k-medoids-based clustering...
  6. ...a major role in cell differentiation. [Supplemental material is available for this article.] DNA methylation is an epigenetic modification essential for mammalian development (Okano et al. 1999). In mammals, the cytosine bases at position 5 in CpG dinucleotides are modified -wide by dedicatedmethyl...
  7. ...as to how the 5′ jagged ends could be detected by introducing unmethylated cytosines (together with three other unmodified nucleotides) for DNA polymerase-mediated extension. All cytosines present in the CpG dinucleotides of a newly synthesized strand would be completely unmethylated. On the other hand...
  8. ...epigenomic change in mammalian sperm methylomes and point to a divergence in trans-epigenetic mechanisms that govern the organization of epigenetic states at gene promoters.Mammalian DNA methylation is an epigenetic modification that occurs primarily on cytosines in the context of CpG dinucleotide and has...
  9. .... 2014; Devall et al. 2017), both CpG and non-CpG methylation were observed on mtDNA, and they are in a strand-biased pattern (Bellizzi et al. 2013). Conversely, by focusing only on the CpG or the average methylation level of all Cs of mtDNA, some studies showed the absence of mtDNA methylation...
  10. ...with non-CpG divergence in the chimpanzee lineage in our data set (Fig. 4D,E). This correlationwould reflect the influence ofmutation rate components common to CpG and nonCpG mutations, such as exposure of DNA to damage and the efficiency of the BER system (Stamatoyannopoulos et al. 2009). It may also...
