DNA Methylation is Associated with an Increased Level of Conservation at Nondegenerate Nucleotides in Mammals

DNA methylation at CpG dinucleotides can significantly increase the rate of cytosine-to-thymine mutations and the level of sequence divergence. Although the correlations between DNA methylation and genomic sequence evolution have been widely studied, an unaddressed yet fundamental question is how DN...
