DNA Methyltransferase inhibitors are pivotal in the study of epigenetics. They target enzymes responsible for DNA methylation, a key epigenetic modification. These inhibitors offer invaluable insights into gene regulation and the potential to develop treatments for conditions linked to abnormal DNA methylation, including certain cancers. By altering DNA methylation patterns, researchers aim to decode epigenetic control and harness its potential for medical advancements.
