“…In insects, methylated cytosine is found in the coding region of genes and seems to play a specialized role in the maintenance of transcript integrity and mRNA regulation (Glastad et al, 2011;Ye et al, 2013). The presence of methylated cytosine in A. albopictus has first been proven by Adams et al (1979) and was further investigated in a genome analysis in the sequence 5′-CCGG-3′ (Nayak et al, 1991). The complete methylome of the sister species A. aegypti has been characterized and DNA methylation could be associated with reduced transcription (Ye et al, 2013).…”

Secondary metabolites or natural products have been isolated from many marine organisms. These metabolites often have important bioactive functions; however, very little information is available regarding the biosynthesis and regulation of many secondary metabolites. At a time when use of marine-derived metabolites is rapidly expanding in industry and pharmacological fields, a better understanding of the genetic mechanisms controlling secondary metabolite production is necessary. We review the recent development of a novel transcriptome profiling methodology that allows for rapid and high-throughput screening of changes in mRNA sequence pools. The application of genomics-based techniques and the integration of both biochemical and molecular data sets in marine organisms complement ongoing drug discovery efforts.
