The comparison of DNA (C5) methyltransferases and accessory proteins of D. magna and H. sapiens and the gene expression levels under different conditions. A Domain structures of de novo and maintenance DNA methyltransferases and accessory proteins in Daphnia magna and Homo sapiens were predicted using InterProScan and NLStradamus. Colored boxes represent the functional domains, with numbers indicating their respective positions along the protein sequence. Diagonal black-striped boxes indicate a predicted disordered consensus sequence. B Gene expression levels (TPM on log scale) of three DNMT genes (DmaDNMT1, DmaDNMT3.1, and DmaDNMT3.2) in young and old D. magna individuals. Bars represent the mean expression levels, and error bars denote standard deviation (SD). Statistical significance between conditions for each gene was assessed using a two-sided Student’s t-test, with significance indicated as follows: P < 0.001 (***) and nonsignificant (ns). Expression levels of DmaDNMT1 and DmaDNMT3.2 showed no significant differences between the groups, while DmaDNMT3.1 expression was significantly different in young individuals compared to the old group
