The genomic loci of specific human tRNA genes exhibit ageing-related DNA hypermethylation

The epigenome has been shown to change with age, potentially impacting on ageing-related disease. Here the authors investigate the DNA methylation state of the genomic loci of human tRNA and observe enrichment for age-related DNA hypermethylation at tRNA loci.
