Epigenetics, Nuclear Organization & Gene Function: With Implications of Epigenetic Regulation and Genetic Architecture for Human Development and Healt

by John C Lucchesi

Epigenetics is the study of heritable changes in gene function that do not involve changes in the DNA sequence. These changes, consisting principally of DNA methylation, histone modifications, and non-coding RNAs, maintain or modulate the initial impact of regulatory factors that recognize and associate with particular genomic sequences. Epigenetic modifications are manifest in all aspects of normal cellular differentiation and function, but they...
