DNA methylation is a cryptic phenomenon that invokes the methylation of the cytosines in nuclear DNA and is responsible for a wide variety of essential processes, starting from cellular differentiation (embryogenesis), transposon silencing, mi RNA dependent methylation and gene regulation. This book presents an overview of different aspects of DNA methylation with a focus on its basic principles and mechanisms and gene silencing. Also discussed, is the role of DNA methylation in plants; epigenetic control of circadian clock operation; photoperiodic flowering; and DNA methylation in cancer and its role in multiple sclerosis.
