WHAT DOES METHYLATE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Methylation

In the chemical sciences, methylation denotes the addition of a methyl group to a substrate or the substitution of an atom or group by a methyl group. Methylation is a form of alkylation with a methyl group, rather than a larger carbon chain, replacing a hydrogen atom. These terms are commonly used in chemistry, biochemistry, soil science, and the biological sciences. In biological systems, methylation is catalyzed by enzymes; such methylation can be involved in modification of heavy metals, regulation of gene expression, regulation of protein function, and RNA processing. Methylation of heavy metals can also occur outside of biological systems. Chemical methylation of tissue samples is also one method for reducing certain histological staining artifacts.

Definition of methylate in the English dictionary

The definition of methylate in the dictionary is to mix with methanol. Other definition of methylate is to undergo or cause to undergo a chemical reaction in which a methyl group is introduced into a molecule.
