The Relationship of DNA Methylation with Age, Gender and Genotype in Twins and Healthy Controls

Cytosine-5 methylation within CpG dinucleotides is a potentially important mechanism of epigenetic influence on human traits and disease. In addition to influences of age and gender, genetic control of DNA methylation levels has recently been described. We used whole blood genomic DNA in a twin set...
