Hydroxymethylation at promoter region is associated with a release of methyl-binding proteins and an increase in transcription [38,43].

Methylation in the gene body is a feature of actively transcriped genes [44,45].

IGF2 enhancer, an aging regulator.

crotonylation[61].

centenarian DNA has a lower methylation content covering all genimc regions [71,72].

DR cause DNA methylation changes in genes linked to aging including TNF-alpha, and TFs such as WT1.

In Rehsus macaque brain there is an age-related global increase in H3K4me2, associated with transcriptionally active sites, at both promoter and enhancer regions [111].

A modifier regulting H£K36me3 affects lifepsan in C. elegans [161].
