DNA methylation is an epigenetic modification that is implicated in transcriptional silencing. Recently, it has become increasingly clear that both correct levels and proper interpretation of methylation are important factors for normal development and function of the human organism. One example is

Rett syndrome (RTT or RS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder and one of the most frequent genetic diseases in girls. Mutations of the MECP2 gene have been found in a variety of different RTT phenotypes. The MECP2 gene (Xq28) has been described in 1992. Up to now, 218 different mutations have been repo

## Abstract Neurons and astrocytes are generated from common neural precursors, yet neurogenesis precedes astrocytogenesis, which normally commences at later stages of development. We have previously reported that a particular cytosine residue within a STAT3‐binding site in the astrocyte‐specific m
