Evaluating Reliability of DNA Methylation Measurement
DNA methylation is a widely studied epigenetic phenomenon. Alterations in methylation patterns influence human phenotypes and risk of disease. The... -
DNA Origami: Recent Progress and Applications
This chapter explores the basic concept of DNA origami and its various types. By showing the progress made in structural DNA nanotechnology during... -
DNA Methylation and Epigenetic Aging Biomarkers in Huntington’s Disease
DNA methylation is an epigenetic modification that plays critical roles in several important processes, including regulation of transcription,... -
Race-specific coregulatory and transcriptomic profiles associated with DNA methylation and androgen receptor in prostate cancer
BackgroundProstate cancer is a significant health concern, particularly among African American (AA) men who exhibit higher incidence and mortality...
