ABSTRACT:
Chemically modified genomic sequences of genes associated with gene regulation, to oligonucleotides and/or PNA-oligomers for detecting the cytosine methylation state of genes associated with gene regulation which are directed against the sequence are disclosed. In addition, a method for ascertaining genetic and/or epigenetic parameters of genes associated with gene regulation is disclosed.
