All of our body's cells possess the same genes, yet they perform wildly different functions. Epigenetics determines which of these genes are expressed, thereby dictating the cell's role. DNA methylation is a crucial part of this process.

The sodium-potassium pump is a protein in the neuron's membrane that uses ATP to move three sodium ions out and two potassium ions into the cell, thereby restoring the resting potential necessary for nerve impulses.
