A RID-like putative cytosine methyltransferase homologue controls sexual development in the fungus Podospora anserina.
DNA methyltransferases are ubiquitous enzymes conserved in bacteria, plants and opisthokonta. These enzymes, which methylate cytosines, are involved in numerous biological processes, notably development. In mammals and higher plants, methylation patterns established and maintained by the cytosine DN...
