Roles:

        Arg0-PAG: agent/causer of methylation (e.g. scientist)
        Arg1-PPT: entity methylated

        Vanillin (I) is brominated (Br2/AcOH) to 5-bromovanillin (II) which is subsequently methylated to give 5-bromoveratraldehyde (III).

        Arg1: 5-bromovanillin (II)
        Arg3: 5-bromoveratraldehyde (III)

Example: methylate-v: agent and instrument

        To test this hypothesis, we methylated bacterial DNA with CpG methylase.

        Arg0: we
        Arg1: bacterial DNA
        Arg2: CpG methylase
