Sequence of events in initiation of translation: a role for initiator transfer RNA in the recognition of messenger RNA.

abstract：:Global loss of DNA methylation has been known for decades as an epigenomic aberration associated with carcinogenesis and cancer progression. Loss of DNA methylation affects predominantly repetitive elements, which encompass >50% of the CpG dinucleotides present in the human genome. Because of the lack of an effective ...
