Researchers Write and Erase DNA Methylation with LightScientists at TU Dortmund University have achieved an important advance in the field of chemical epigenetics: In two studies, they describe for the first time how light can be used to directly switch the writing and erasure of DNA methylation. A central process in human biology, DNA methylation regulates, for example, the development of embryos and the onset of cancer. The research results have been published in two renowned scientific journals.

TU Dortmund Researchers Report an Advance in DNA AnalyticsScientists in the Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology at TU Dortmund University have achieved an important advance in the field of DNA analysis: They are the first to describe molecular probes that can be used to read novel combinations of epigenetically modified DNA building blocks in the two strands of the DNA double helix. Their research results were published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society.
