DNA Methylation Region

Dear all,

Does methylation need to be in a promoter region to influence transcription?

Thanks, Mehul

Hello mehul.kumar!

We believe that this post does not fit the main topic of this site.

This is not a bioinformatics question, the R tag is irrelevant. Please ask a pure biology forum, such as biology StackExchange.

For this reason we have closed your question. This allows us to keep the site focused on the topics that the community can help with.

If you disagree please tell us why in a reply below, we'll be happy to talk about it.

Cheers!

By the way, the answer is: No. Check the literature for e.g. enhancer methylation, influence of LADs on gene expression and its methylation status etc...read reviews if you have no background yet.
