About

Dna demethylation is the biological process involving the removal of methyl groups from cytosine bases within DNA, primarily investigating the enzymatic mechanisms, regulatory pathways, and functional consequences of this epigenetic modification. This concept explores how DNA demethylation dynamically alters chromatin structure and gene expression, playing a critical role in cellular differentiation, development, and responses to environmental stimuli, while its dysregulation is implicated in various pathological conditions.
