Systematic comparison of monoclonal versus polyclonal antibodies for mapping histone modifications by ChIP-seq. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
BackgroundThe robustness of ChIP-seq datasets is highly dependent upon the antibodies used. Currently, polyclonal antibodies are the standard despite several limitations: They are non-renewable, vary in performance between lots and need to be validated ...

Viral Epigenetics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
DNA tumor viruses including members of the polyomavirus, adenovirus, papillomavirus, and herpes virus families are presently the subject of intense interest with respect to the role that epigenetics plays in control of the virus life cycle and the transformation of a normal cell to a cancer cell.

Malaria Epigenetics [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2017
Organisms with identical genome sequences can show substantial differences in their phenotypes owing to epigenetic changes that result in different use of their genes. Epigenetic regulation of gene expression plays a key role in the control of several fundamental processes in the biology of malaria parasites, including antigenic variation and sexual ...

Replication timing and epigenome remodelling are associated with the nature of chromosomal rearrangements in cancer

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
The connection between DNA replication timing and changes that occur to the epigenome in cancer are still poorly understood. Here, the authors perform Repli-Seq and integrated epigenome analyses and find that genomic regions that undergo long-range ...

The physics of epigenetics

open access: yes, 2016
In higher organisms, all cells share the same genome, but every cell expresses only a limited and specific set of genes that defines the cell type. During cell division, not only the genome, but also the cell type is inherited by the daughter cells. This

Epigenome-wide association study reveals decreased average methylation levels years before breast cancer diagnosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Interest in the potential of DNA methylation in peripheral blood as a biomarker of cancer risk is increasing. We aimed to assess whether epigenome-wide DNA methylation measured in peripheral blood samples obtained before onset of the disease is ...

Synthesizing the role of epigenetics in the response and adaptation of species to climate change in freshwater ecosystems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Freshwater ecosystems are amongst the most threatened ecosystems on Earth. Currently, climate change is one of the most important drivers of freshwater transformation and its effects include changes in the composition, biodiversity and functioning of ...

Epigenetic Mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The incidence of diabetes and related complications like nephropathy is growing rapidly and has become a major health care issue. Changes in the environment and nutritional habits have been implicated as major players. Furthermore, it is becoming increasingly clear that epigenetic factors may modulate the connections between genes and the environment ...

The Many Faces of EpigeneticsOxford, December 2017

open access: yesEpigenetics, 2019
The conference ‘The Many Faces of Epigenetics: Multidisciplinary Perspectives “over” Genetics’ was held in Oxford (6–8 December 2017) and offered a valuable window into the domain of Epigenetics and its promises.

The social construction of the social epigenome and the larger biological context

open access: yesEpigenetics & Chromatin, 2020
Epigenetics researchers in developmental, cell, and molecular biology greatly diverge in their understanding and definitions of epigenetics. In contrast, social epigeneticists, e.g., sociologists, scholars of STS, and behavioural scientists, share a ...
