A genome-scale map of DNA methylation turnover identifies site-specific dependencies of DNMT and TET activity

Local activity of the DNA methylation machinery remains poorly understood. Here, the authors present a theoretical and experimental framework to infer methylation and demethylation rates at genome scale in mouse embryonic stem cells, finding that maintenance methylation activity is reduced at transc...

Sumario:Local activity of the DNA methylation machinery remains poorly understood. Here, the authors present a theoretical and experimental framework to infer methylation and demethylation rates at genome scale in mouse embryonic stem cells, finding that maintenance methylation activity is reduced at transcription factor binding sites, while methylation turnover is elevated in transcribed gene bodies.
