Methylation is a crucial biochemical process that affects numerous aspects of our well-being, including mental health. In the simplest terms, methylation involves the transfer of a single carbon and three hydrogen atoms (a methyl group) from one ...
Aging is a complex process that encompasses various biological mechanisms. One of these mechanisms involves changes in the epigenome, particularly DNA methylation. DNA methylation is a biochemical process that adds a methyl group to the DNA ...
Nutrition and methylation are intricately linked. The food we consume provides the raw materials used in the methylation processes that occur within our cells. Methylation is a biochemical reaction that transfers a methyl group, a small molecule ...
DNA methylation is a critical epigenetic modification that has a profound impact on gene expression and the subsequent cellular function. By adding methyl groups to the DNA molecule, typically at specific cytosine-phosphate-guanine (CpG) sites, cells can ...
Histone methylation is a critical epigenetic mechanism that plays a vital role in the regulation of gene expression. Methylation, the addition of methyl groups to the amino acids that make up histones, affects how tightly or ...
Methylation is a biochemical process critical to various functions within the human body. It encompasses a wide range of biological processes from genetic expression to the aging process. It involves the addition of a methyl ...
