Evolutionary analysis indicates that DNA alkylation damage is a byproduct of cytosine DNA methyltransferase activity

Methylation at the 5 position of cytosine in DNA (5meC), is a key epigenetic mark in eukaryotes. Once introduced, 5meC can be maintained through DNA replication due to the activity of “maintenance” DNA methyltransferases.. Despite their ancient origin, DNA methylation pathways differ widely across m...
