Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Methylation can alter genetic instructions by adding a methyl group to the DNA molecule, which can affect how the DNA is read and expressed.

Methylation does not directly transcribe genetic instructions, but it can affect transcription by regulating the accessibility of the DNA to transcription factors.
