Methyltransferase and DNA F006 / 9421
Methyltransferase and DNA. Molecular model of the enzyme HhaI methyltransferase (beige) complexed with a molecule of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid, red and blue). Methyltransferases are enzymes that catalyse the transfer of methyl groups (CH3) to DNA nucleotides. HhaI methyltransferase catalyses the transfer to cytosine nucleotides. Methylation of the nucleotides modulates gene expression

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate molecular dance between Methyltransferase and DNA. The image depicts a detailed molecular model of HhaI methyltransferase, an enzyme responsible for catalyzing the transfer of methyl groups (CH3) to cytosine nucleotides in DNA. The beige-colored enzyme is elegantly complexed with a vibrant molecule of DNA, represented by its iconic red and blue strands. The significance of this interaction lies in the modulation of gene expression through methylation. By adding methyl groups to specific nucleotides, this process can influence how genes are activated or silenced, ultimately impacting various biological functions. This artwork beautifully captures the essence of epigenetics and highlights the crucial role played by methyltransferases in shaping our genetic landscape. With a white background that accentuates its scientific elegance, this illustration serves as a powerful representation of cutting-edge research in biology and medicine. Its meticulous depiction not only appeals to scientists but also sparks curiosity among those interested in genetics, proteomics, and biochemistry. Crafted by LAGUNA DESIGN/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY, this visually stunning piece seamlessly merges artistry with scientific accuracy. It invites viewers into the fascinating world where molecules interact on a microscopic scale to shape life itself. Whether displayed in laboratories or healthcare facilities, this print serves as an inspiring reminder of humanity's ongoing quest for understanding within the realm of molecular biology.
