Meitiliú ADN

Is éard atá i meitiliú ADN grúpaí meitile a chur le móilín an ADN. Tig leis an meitiliú gníomhaíocht teascáin ADN a athrú gan an seicheamh a athrú. Nuair atá an meitiliú suite i spreagthóir, is iondúil go ndéanann sé tras-scríobh géinte a shrianadh. Is gá meitiliú DNA a bheith ann i gcomhair gnáthfhorbartha i mammaigh.

Is féidir dhá cheann de na ceithre bhun de DNA, cíotósín agus adainín, a mheitiliú. Tá meitiliú an chíotóisín le fáil go forleathan in eocaróit agus in prócaróit, cé gur mór an difríocht idir ráta mheitiliú an ADN de réir an speicis.^[1]^[2]^[3]^[4] Tá meitiliú adainíne le feiceáil in ADN baictéirí, plandaí agus mammach.^[5]^[6]

Galracha cuir in eagar

Tá taighdeoirí ag scrúdú na nascanna idir meitiliú ADN agus galracha daonna ar nós lúpais, ailse, distróife matánach, agus éalanga ó bhroinn. B’fhéidir go bhféadfaí teacht roimh ghalracha a thagann chun cinn i rith fhás an tsutha de thoradh mheitiliú mínormálta an chrómasóim X agus inphriontáil géinte.

Tá cuid mhór den taighde dírithe ar ailse agus ar ghéinte a shrianann ailse. Is minic a “chiúnaíonn” meitiliú mínormálta (hipirmheitiliú) na géinte úd i gcealla ailseacha. I gcomparáid le gnáthchealla, tá na meitiliú chun tosaigh i ngéanóim i gcealla ailseacha i gcoitinne: tá sé le fáil i ngéinte a bhaineann le siadaí ionracha, rialú timthrialla cille, deisiú ADN agus próisis eile ina bhfuil ciúnú déanta agus ailse ag leathnú.
