Epigenetics, chromatin and brain development and function
Research investigating epigenetics and chromatin function in brain and behaviour has mushroomed over the last two decades. And yet epigenetics as a biological concept predates the discovery in the 1950s of DNA as the principle mode of inheritance by over

Will epigenetics ever be a biosocial science? A reply to Chiapperino and Paneni
The recent correspondence article by Chiapperino and Paneni in Clinical Epigenetics correctly points to the inability of epigenetics to incorporate fine-grained mapping data of the individual’s surrounding milieu.

Epigenetics is essentially a phenotypical change in gene expression without any alteration of the DNA sequence; the emergence of epigenetics in cancer research and mainstream oncology is fueling new hope.

Genetic information is not transmitted solely by DNA but by the epigenetics process. Epigenetics describes molecular missing link pathways that could bridge the gap between the genetic background and environmental risk factors that contribute to the ...

The Effects of Epigenetics on Stress Response [PDF]
Despite the vast amount of resources at the disposal of humanity today, the intricacies of human biology are often a mystery. The chemical and biological products of the human genome have been well studied and documented, but many of the chemical and ...

A DNMT3A PWWP mutation leads to methylation of bivalent chromatin and growth retardation in mice
PWWP domains of DNMT3A and DNMT3B are proposed to interact with H3K36me3. Here the authors present a mouse model carrying a D329A point mutation in the DNMT3A PWWP domain and find this causes dominant postnatal growth retardation, with aberrant ...

Epigenetics as a first exit problem
We develop a framework to discuss stability of epigenetic states as first exit problems in dynamical systems with noise. We consider in particular the stability of the lysogenic state of the lambda prophage, which is known to exhibit exceptionally large ...
