GO Term : GO:0044729 hemi-methylated DNA-binding GO

Namespace  molecular_function Obsolete  false
description  Interacting selectively and non-covalently with double-stranded hemi-methylated DNA at replication foci (one strand methylated, while the other strand is unmethylated). Methylation of cytosine or adenine in DNA is an important mechanism for establishing stable heritable epigenetic marks.
