Abstract
DNA methylation in mammals has been shown to play many important roles in diverse biological phenomena. Here we describe a simple and straightforward method that quantitatively measures site-specific levels of DNA methylation in a quick and cost-effective manner. The quantitative analysis of DNA methylation using real-time PCR (qAMP) technique involves the digestion of genomic DNA using methylation-sensitive and methylation-dependent restriction enzymes followed by real-time PCR. This approach generates accurate and reproducible results without the requirement for prior treatment of the DNA with sodium bisulfite.
