Difference between 5-Methylcytosine and Gene expression

5-Methylcytosine vs. Gene expression

5-Methylcytosine is a methylated form of the DNA base cytosine that may be involved in the regulation of gene transcription. Gene expression is the process by which information from a gene is used in the synthesis of a functional gene product.

Similarities between 5-Methylcytosine and Gene expression

5-Methylcytosine and Gene expression have 10 things in common (in Unionpedia): CpG site, DNA, Epigenetics, Eukaryote, National Center for Biotechnology Information, RNA, Thymine, Toxin, Transcription (biology), Uracil.

CpG site

The CpG sites or CG sites are regions of DNA where a cytosine nucleotide is followed by a guanine nucleotide in the linear sequence of bases along its 5' → 3' direction.

DNA

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a thread-like chain of nucleotides carrying the genetic instructions used in the growth, development, functioning and reproduction of all known living organisms and many viruses.

Epigenetics

Epigenetics is the study of heritable changes in gene function that do not involve changes in the DNA sequence.

Thymine

---> Thymine (T, Thy) is one of the four nucleobases in the nucleic acid of DNA that are represented by the letters G–C–A–T.

Toxin

A toxin (from toxikon) is a poisonous substance produced within living cells or organisms; synthetic toxicants created by artificial processes are thus excluded.

Transcription (biology)

Transcription is the first step of gene expression, in which a particular segment of DNA is copied into RNA (especially mRNA) by the enzyme RNA polymerase.

Uracil

Uracil (U) is one of the four nucleobases in the nucleic acid of RNA that are represented by the letters A, G, C and U. The others are adenine (A), cytosine (C), and guanine (G).
