Sample & Assay Technologies

� Stable, covalent DNA modification that targets CpG dinucleotides

� 70%-80% of the CpG dinucleotides are methylated in healthy mammalian cells

� These methylated regions are typical of the bulk chromatin that is relatively inaccessible to transcription factors.

� Associated with gene silencing
