Biological Methylation: Fundamental Mechanisms

For over 30 years, this FASEB Science Research Conference (SRC) has covered broad topics relating to DNA, RNA, protein methylation, and the role these epigenetic and post-translational modifications have in development, disease, and cancer. The conference brings together scientists who are studying diverse aspects of the biochemistry, function, and disease relevance of S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAMe)-dependent methylation to discuss recent research developments and to initiate collaborations. This year’s program will provide ample opportunities for students, fellows, and early-career investigators to interact with leaders in the fields of protein, RNA, and DNA methylation.
