Abstract :Epigenetics mostly focuses on heritable changes in gene expression that does not contain changes to the underlying primary DNA sequences; an alteration in phenotype without an alteration in genotype. Among various cellular mechanisms, especially DNA methylation plays a central role in many epigenetic processes. Therefore, it has been the most studied epigenetic mechanism and many special techniques for assessment of changes in DNA methylation patterns have been developed. Combined bisulfite restriction analysis insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(COBRA); is one of these commonly used techniques. Although many studies have been conducted to get information about epigenetic regulation mechanisms in mammalian cell by using COBRA, there is still limited information on the the epigenetic programs and related pathways in other organisms.
