Selective DNA binding by transcription factors (TFs) is crucial for the correct regulation of DNA
transcription. In healthy cells, promoters of active genes are hypomethylated. A single CpG
methylation within a TF response element may change the binding preferences of the protein
thus causing the dysregulation of transcription programs. Here we investigate a molecular
mechanism driving the downregulation of NDUFA13 gene, due to hypermethylation, ...
