Synonyms
DNA methylation involved in embryo development, de novo DNA methylation, epigenetic regulation of embryonic gene expression
Alternate IDs

Definition
A epigenetic process that happens during embryonic development that modulates gene expression potential at later stages of development of the organism, including the adult. Epigenetic regulation takes place via chromatin remodeling either by modifying higher order chromatin fiber structure, nucleosomal histones, or cytosine DNA methylation.
