<prompt> 5-methylcytosine mutation of DNA DNA methylation leads toDeamination to thymineDNA repairMethylation protects the host DNA from cleavage by its own restriction enzymeAll of these  <response>: DNA methylation is essential for enthralling a number of the cellular process including transcription, genomic imprinting, developmental regulation, mutagenesis, DNA repair and chromatin organization.DNA methylation also protects DNA from bacterias own restriction enzymes.Deamination of 5-methylcytosine forms thymine, this can result in transition mutation.
