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 ...

CpG density and epigenetic modification state modulate DNA mechanics, altering its intrinsic compatibility with nucleosome formation.

In a recent review published in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences, researchers examined the role of epigenetic modifications of the host cell gene expression in determining the ...

Researchers have discovered that a DNA modification called 5-formylcytosine (5fC) functions as an activating epigenetic switch that kick-starts genes in early embryonic development. This finding ...

Great. Good morning, everyone. I'm Alexandra Byrne. I'm a reporter at GenomeWeb, and I will be your moderator for today's webinar. The title of today's webinar is beyond the genome: Measuring ...

Fruit development is a complex process that is regulated not only by plant hormones and transcription factors, but also requires epigenetic modifications. Epigenetic modifications include DNA ...

This figure shows primary T cells modified using two approaches. CAR receptors are introduced through targeted DNA insertion (top), while CRISPRoff mRNA and guide RNAs silence additional genes through ...

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 ...

A research team at the University of California, Davis, has shown that cabernet sauvignon vines carry stable epigenetic ...
