Effect of Regulatory Element DNA Methylation on Tissue-Type Plasminogen Activator Gene Expression.

Expression of the tissue-type plasminogen activator gene (t-PA; gene name PLAT) is regulated, in part, by epigenetic mechanisms. We investigated the relationship between PLAT methylation and PLAT expression in five primary human cell types and six transformed cell lines. CpG methylation was analyzed...
