Epigenetic dysregulation in chronic myeloid leukaemia: A myriad of mechanisms and therapeutic options [PDF]
The onset of global epigenetic changes in chromatin that drive tumor proliferation and heterogeneity is a hallmark of many forms cancer. Identifying the epigenetic mechanisms that govern these changes and developing therapeutic approaches to modulate ...

Stress related epigenetic changes may explain opportunistic success in biological invasions in Antipode mussels [PDF]
Different environmental factors could induce epigenetic changes, which are likely involved in the biological invasion process. Some of these factors are driven by humans as, for example, the pollution and deliberate or accidental introductions and others

Chromosomes are organized into 3D structures that are important for the regulation of gene expression and differentiation. Important role in formation of inter-chromosome contacts play rDNA clusters that make up nucleoli. In the course of differentiation,

Writing of H3K4Me3 overcomes epigenetic silencing in a sustained but context-dependent manner
Epigenome editing by zinc finger (ZF) and CRISPR-dCas9 technologies can induce or repress gene expression. Here, the authors show that histone methyltransferase PRDM9 fused to either dCas9 or ZF proteins can sustain gene re-expression, and H3K79me is ...

Histone methyltransferase DOT1L catalyzes mono-, di- and trimethylation of histone 3 at lysine residue 79 (H3K79) and hypermethylation of H3K79 has been linked to the development of acute leukemias characterized by the MLL (mixed-lineage leukemia ...

The importance of detailed epigenomic profiling of different cell types within organs. [PDF]
The human body consists of hundreds of kinds of cells specified from a single genome overlaid with cell type-specific epigenetic information. Comprehensively profiling the body's distinct epigenetic landscapes will allow researchers to verify cell types ...

Bifurcation in epigenetics: implications in development, proliferation and diseases
Cells often exhibit different and stable phenotypes from the same DNA sequence. Robustness and plasticity of such cellular states are controlled by diverse transcriptional and epigenetic mechanisms, among them the modification of biochemical marks on ...

Optimized Bacteria are Environmental Prediction Engines [PDF]
Experimentalists have observed phenotypic variability in isogenic bacteria populations. We explore the hypothesis that in fluctuating environments this variability is tuned to maximize a bacterium's expected log growth rate, potentially aided by ...

Coordinated actions of microRNAs with other epigenetic factors regulate skeletal muscle development and adaptation [PDF]
Epigenetics plays a pivotal role in regulating gene expression in development, in response to cellular stress or in disease states, in virtually all cell types.
