Epigenetic modulation of chromatin states constitutes a vital component of the cellular repertoire of transcriptional regulatory mechanisms. The development of new technologies capable of generating genome-wide maps of chromatin modifications has re-energized the field. We are now poised to determine how species- and tissue-specific patterns of DNA methylation, in concert with other chromatin modifications, function to establish and maintain cell- and tissue-specific patterns of gene expression during normal development, cellular differentiation, and disease. This review addresses our current understanding of the major mechanisms and function of DNA methylation in vertebrates with a historical perspective and an emphasis on what is known about DNA methylation in eye development and disease.
