Epigenetic memory is the ability of cells with the same genotype to keep different phenotypes through subsequent cell divisions and time 1,2. It is critical in multi-cellular organisms and allows to ...

Histone modifications and DNA methylation — that is, the presence of 5-methylcytosine (5mC) — are the two main carriers of epigenomic information. They are essential for cell differentiation and are ...

This Brush Up is sponsored by Cayman Chemical. Learn more about chemical inhibitors of histone modification. Histone modification affects how tightly DNA wraps around histone proteins, yielding ...

The serine 31 (Ser31) phosphorylation modification (H3.3S31ph) in the N-terminal tail of the histone variant H3.3 can transform H3.3 nucleosomes from a stable state to a dynamically activated ...

Inside every cell, inside every nucleus, your continued existence depends on an incredibly complicated dance. Proteins are constantly wrapping and unwrapping DNA, and even minor missteps can lead to ...
