De novo DNA cytosine methyltransferase activities in mouse embryonic stem cells
ABSTRACT It has been a controversial issue as to how many DNA cytosine methyltransferase mammalian cells have and whether de novo methylation and maintenance methylation activit...
DNA hypomethylation can activate Xist expression and silence X-linked genes.
Xist and other X-linked gene expression was examined by fluorescence in situ hybridization in cells of wild type and DNA methyltranferase (Dnmt) mutant embryos and embryonic ste...
Dnmt2 is not required for de novo and maintenance methylation of viral DNA in embryonic stem cells
We have shown previously that de novo methylation activities persist in mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells homozygous for a null mutation of Dnmt1 that encodes the major DNA cytosi...
Reduced Rates of Gene Loss, Gene Silencing, and Gene Mutation in <i>Dnmt1</i>-Deficient Embryonic Stem Cells
Tumor suppressor gene inactivation is a crucial event in oncogenesis. Gene inactivation mechanisms include events resulting in loss of heterozygosity (LOH), gene mutation, and t...
Genome-wide dynamics of replication timing revealed by in vitro models of mouse embryogenesis
Differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) is accompanied by changes in replication timing. To explore the relationship between replication timing and cell fate trans...
