Epigenetically reprogrammed methylation landscape drives the DNA self-assembly and serves as a universal cancer biomarker

DNA methylation is an epigenetic modification that control genetic programs. Here, the authors found that the methylation landscape influences the physicochemical properties of DNA and that it can serve as a universal cancer biomarker, and developed a one-step assay for the detection of cancer DNA.
