This Brush Up is sponsored by Cayman Chemical. Learn more about chemical inhibitors of histone modification. Histone modification affects how tightly DNA wraps around histone proteins, yielding ...

Histone modification is an epigenetic mechanism that regulates gene expression by altering chromatin structure and DNA accessibility for transcription. Histone modification is regulated by various ...

Epigenetics, the study of changes in gene function that do not involve alterations to the DNA sequence, plays a pivotal role in understanding the complex interplay between genetics and the environment ...

Strands of DNA wrapped around a histone. Credit: Molekuul/Science Source Histones are among the most abundant proteins in the body. They act as spools that help compact DNA so our enormous genomes ...

Salt stress remains a critical challenge for plant growth, especially in crops like pea (Pisum sativum L.). This study explores the role of histone modifications in regulating pea's response to salt ...

Epigenetics plays a critical role in human health by regulating gene expression without the direct modification of DNA sequence. Aberrant epigenetic modifications mediated by changes in DNA and ...

Our group has contributed to the molecular and functional understanding of histone mark and DNA methylation mark readout by writer, reader and eraser proteins, as well as investigated the crosstalk ...

Epigenetics is the science of how your lifestyle, environment, and even emotions can alter your gene activity without ...

The biomedical literature provides many examples when medical conditions that were classically viewed as a paradigm for genetic inheritance appear to be shaped by additional factors, which cannot be ...

Epigenetics is the study of the impact of human lifestyle and environmental factors on gene expression patterns. Epigenetic changes are dynamic and reversible and inherited somatically. These changes ...
