Term Information

Accession
GO:0044029
Name
positive regulation of gene expression via CpG island demethylation
Ontology
biological_process
Synonyms
DNA hypomethylation of CpG island, hypomethylation of CpG island
Alternate IDs
None
Definition
An epigenetic gene regulation mechanism that positively regulates gene expression by demethylation of cytosine residues in chromosomal CpG islands. CpG islands are genomic regions that contain a high frequency of the CG dinucleotide and are often associated with the transcription start site of genes.
