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

Genetics and epigenetics of obesity
Obesity results from interactions between environmental and genetic factors. Despite a relatively high heritability of common, non-syndromic obesity (40-70%), the search for genetic variants contributing to susceptibility has been a challenging task. Genome wide association (GWA) studies have dramatically changed the pace of detection of common genetic

Genetics and epigenetics of inflammatory bowel disease
The relevance of genetic and epigenetic alterations in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is still poorly understood. So far, 240 risk gene loci have been associated with IBD. They are mainly involved in regulating innate and adaptive

The importance of DNAPKcs for blunt DNA end joining is magnified when XLF is weakened
DNAPKcs and its kinase activity are required for blunt DNA break end joining when the bridging factor XLF is weakened, but for homologous recombination and radiation resistance, the influence of DNAPKcs is not further enhanced with loss of XLF.

How might epigenetics contribute to ecological speciation? [PDF]
Speciation research has seen a renewed interest in ecological speciation, which emphasises divergent ecological selection leading to the evolution of reproductive isolation.

Transcription-replication conflicts need to be resolved to minimize genome instability. Here the authors show that SUMO2-conjugated PCNA destabilizes RNAPII from chromatin, enhances replication progression and limits transcription-induced DNA damage at ...

WDR proteins in plants regulate multiple aspects of plant growth and development, as well as plant responses to environmental stimuli. Here, we report the identification of AIW1 (ABA-induced WD40-repeat 1) and AIW2 as novel regulators of salt responses ...
