DNA and RNA methylation, initially thought to operate as distinct pathways, have been shown to interact closely, shifting our understanding of gene regulation. A team of researchers from the ...
In part 2 of this webinar, Dr. Emily Hodges, assistant professor of biochemistry at Vanderbilt University, will reveal new data that illustrates how the Hodges Lab is utilizing the 6-base genome to ...
The epigenetic modification, DNA methylation, is characterized by 5-methylcytosine (5-mC) and found in specific genomic locations, most notably regulatory regions such as promoters and enhancers.
"We find that epigenetic clocks based on the entropy of methylation states predict chronological age with similar accuracy as common approaches that are based on methylation levels of individual ...
A new research paper was published in Aging (Aging-US) Volume 17, Issue 3, on March 12, 2025, titled "DNA methylation entropy is a biomarker for aging." Researchers Jonathan Chan, Liudmilla Rubbi, and ...
“Our results suggest that rDNA promoter methylation and the age-related loss of active rDNA TU, which are a hallmark of the aging process, start only after reaching sexual maturity.” “Our results ...
