Evolution of DNA methylation in the human brain

DNA methylation plays an important role in brain development and function. Here, the authors compare whole-genome methylation in neurons and oligodendrocytes in humans, chimpanzees and macaques to reconstruct evolution of DNA methylation at cell-type level, including in regions associated with schiz...

Sumario:DNA methylation plays an important role in brain development and function. Here, the authors compare whole-genome methylation in neurons and oligodendrocytes in humans, chimpanzees and macaques to reconstruct evolution of DNA methylation at cell-type level, including in regions associated with schizophrenia heritability.
