Descriptor ADN (citosina-5-)-metiltransferasa 1
Entry term(s) enzima DNMT1
Scope note: ADN (citosina-5)-metiltransferasa que contiene un motivo central de dedo de zinc tipo CxxC. Se une a poli(ADP)-ribosa y su expresión es regulada por la POLI (ADP-RIBOSA) POLIMERASA-1. La DNMT1 metila residuos CpG, con preferencia por el ADN hemimetilado y se asocia a los sitios de replicación del ADN en la FASE S para mantener el patrón de metilación en la hebra recién fabricada, lo que resulta esencial en los PROCESOS EPIGENÉTICOS. También se asocia a la CROMATINA durante la FASE G2 y la MITOSIS para mantener la metilación independientemente de la replicación. Es responsable del mantenimiento de los patrones de metilación establecidos durante el desarrollo; las mutaciones del gen DNMT1 se asocian a la NEUROPATÍA HEREDITARIA SENSORIAL TIPO 1, clase E.

Scope note: A DNA (cytosine-5-)-methyltransferase that contains a central CxxC type zinc finger motif. It binds poly(ADP)-ribose and its expression is regulated by POLY (ADP-RIBOSE) POLYMERASE-1. DNMT1 methylates CpG residues, with a preference for hemimethylated DNA, and associates with DNA replication sites in S PHASE to maintain the methylation pattern in the newly synthesized strand, which is essential for EPIGENETIC PROCESSES. It also associates with CHROMATIN during G2 PHASE and MITOSIS to maintain DNA methylation independently of replication. It is responsible for maintaining methylation patterns established in development; mutations in the DNMT1 gene are associated with HEREDITARY SENSORY NEUROPATHY TYPE 1 class E.
