DNA Methylation Markers

DNA Methylation is considered to be an effective marker in studing gene regulation.Methyllation of nucleotides is the signal for switching off of a particular gene.By tracing the methylated DNA we can trace the regulatory regions of the gene.Methylation of DNA can be detected by using Bisulfite.Thus Methylated DNA can be considered as an effective DNA marker
