What are single nucleotide polymorphisms, and how do they affect genetic expression? Name two mechanisms by which DNA methylation inhibits gene expression. How does methylation from the mother and father affect expression of the insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) gene?
How does methylation happen? CH3 is provided to the body through a universal methyl donor known as SAMe (S-adenosylmethionine). SAMe readily gives away its methyl group to other substances in the body, which enables the cardiovascular, neurological, reproductive, and detoxification systems to perform...
How Does Methylation Work? To get really technical, here's a brief view of the biochemical process of methylation: Methyl is a simple molecule of one carbon and three hydrogens; it's also called a methyl group. Methylation is a biochemical reaction that happens when specialized enzymes attach...

Importantly, the sexually dimorphic brain, similar to most sex differences, does not fall into a hard binary readout—but rather is on a continuum or spectrum with each cell and each brain region comprised of varying degrees of 'male' and 'female' (Hines, 2005; Joel and McCarthy, 2016)....
For the studies included in this review, the generation of isogenic controls by gene editing has all been done post-reprogramming, but it is also possible to do simultaneously, or prior to reprogramming. Gene editing has also been done inversely in hPSCs to generate mutation lines with the ...
