Direct enzymatic sequencing of 5-methylcytosine at single-baseresolution.
Published: June, 2023

Abstract: 5-methylcytosine (5mC) is the most important DNA modification in mammalian genomes. The ideal method for 5mC localization would be both nondestructive of DNA and direct, without requiring inference based on detection of unmodified cytosines. Here ...

Transfer of blocker-based qPCR reactions for DNA methylation analysisinto a microfluidic LoC system using thermal modeling.
Published: December, 2022

Abstract: Changes in the DNA methylation landscape are associated with many diseases like cancer. Therefore, DNA methylation analysis is of great interest for molecular diagnostics and can be applied, e.g., for minimally invasive diagnostics in liquid biops...

Differential epigenetic regulation between the alternative promoters,PRDM1α and PRDM1β, of the tumour suppressor gene PRDM1 in humanmultiple myeloma cells.
Published: September, 2020

Abstract: Multiple myeloma (MM) is a B-cell neoplasm that is characterized by the accumulation of malignant plasma cells in the bone marrow. The transcription factor PRDM1 is a master regulator of plasma cell development and is considered to be an oncosuppr...

Recombination may occur in the absence of transcription in the immunoglobulin heavy chain recombination centre.
Published: February, 2020

Abstract: Developing B cells undergo V(D)J recombination to generate a vast repertoire of Ig molecules. V(D)J recombination is initiated by the RAG1/RAG2 complex in recombination centres (RCs), where gene segments become accessible to the complex. Whether t...

Developmental regulation of DNA cytosine methylation at the immunoglobulin heavy chain constant locus.
Published: February, 2019

Abstract: DNA cytosine methylation is involved in the regulation of gene expression during development and its deregulation is often associated with disease. Mammalian genomes are predominantly methylated at CpG dinucleotides. Unmethylated CpGs are often as...

Reproducibility of methylated CpG typing with the Illumina MiSeq
Published: September, 2017

Abstract: DNA methylation patterns may be used for identification of body fluids and for age estimation of human individuals. We evaluated some of the challenges and pitfalls of studying methylated CpG sites. We compared the methylated CpG analysis of two...

Faithful SGCE imprinting in iPSC-derived cortical neurons: an endogenous cellular model of myoclonus-dystonia
Published: February, 2017

Abstract: In neuropathology research, induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived neurons are considered a tool closely resembling the patient brain. Albeit in respect to epigenetics, this concept has been challenged. We generated iPSC-derived cortical neu...

Regulation of Hox orthologues in the oyster Crassostrea gigas evidences a functional role for promoter DNA methylation in an invertebrate.
Published: June, 2015

Abstract: DNA methylation within promoter regions (PRDM) controls vertebrate early gene transcription and thereby development, but is neglected outside this group. However, epigenetic features in the oyster Crassostrea gigas suggest functional significance ...
