Signatures of DNA Methylation across Insects Suggest Reduced DNA Methylation Levels in Holometabola

It has been experimentally shown that DNA methylation is involved in the regulation of gene expression and the silencing of transposable element activity in eukaryotes. The variable levels of DNA methylation among different insect species indicate an evolutionarily flexible role of DNA methylation i...
