Epigenetics, the dynamic regulation of genetic expression, involves complex molecular mechanisms. While the process of gene silencing by methylating the H3K27 position in histones is understood, not ...

Gene expression and features of the DNA–protein complex chromatin were mapped together at high spatial resolution in tissue sections of the mouse or human brain. This spatially resolved technology ...

Epigenetics is the study of various heritable alterations that control gene expression without changing the DNA sequence. 1 The name epigenetics comes from the Greek prefix “epi”, which means on top ...

Epigenetics is a rapidly growing field of study that focuses on the heritable changes in gene expression that occur without alterations to the underlying DNA sequence. These changes are caused by ...

Epigenetics is an emerging field of scientific research exploring the study of gene expression changes that occur without alterations to the DNA sequence itself. Image Credit: Juan ...

Chroma Medicine highlighted data demonstrating the advantages of epigenetic editing for multiplex gene regulation at the American Society of Gene & Cell Therapy (ASGCT) 26 th Annual Meeting in Los ...

Gene editing currently makes long-term changes to DNA sequences as a way of turning genes on or off. For many, however, the potential for permanent genetic changes is concerning. In contrast, a new ...

The expression of genes has to be carefully regulated in cells; active genes give cells their identity and ability to function. Epigenetic features are just one way that cells control gene expression, ...

Epigenetics, the chemical mechanisms that controls the activity of genes, allows our cells, tissues and organs to adapt to the changing circumstances of the environment around us. This advantage can ...

Epigenome editing has followed a similar path, in that more recent technological breakthroughs have enabled scientists to apply the discoveries made in previous decades. Epigenome editing performs a ...

Changes in histone modifications of genes involved in flowering. (a) The removal of Polycomb complexes by SDG7 protein. (b) Transcription elongation and the deposition of H3K36me3 by SDG8 protein. PRE ...
