DNA methylation is a naturally occurring event that affects cell function by altering gene expression. A methyl group is added to the fifth-carbon of cytosine in a CpG dinucleotide by DNA methyltransferase. As aberrant methylation is prevalent in many human cancers, and because methylation is also involved in embryonic development and cell cycle regulation, much research depends on accurately quantifying DNA methylation.
