0.020 PosttranslationalModification group LHGDN In 33 breast tumor specimens, promoter methylation of BMP-6 was detected by methylation-specific PCR, hypermethylation of BMP-6 was observed in ER negative cases (16 of 16 cases (100%)), while obviously lower methylation frequency were observed in ER positive cases (3 of 17 cases (18%)), indicating that BMP-6 promoter methylation status is correlated with ER status in breast cancer. 17574840 2007
