Targeted DNA methylation in vivo using an engineered dCas9-MQ1 fusion protein

Understanding how DNA methylation regulates gene expression requires the capacity to deploy it to regions of interest. The authors generate a highly rapid and locus-specific CpG methylation tool by fusing dCas9 to MQ1 DNA methyltransferase and show efficacy at multiple sitesin vitro and in vivo.
