Histone modification is an epigenetic mechanism that enables fine-tuning of gene expression. Mutation or dysregulation of proteins associated with histone modification (called “writers,” “erasers,” ...

Researchers discovered that a small region of the PRC2 protein complex acts as a functional switch controlling gene silencing ...

Salt stress remains a critical challenge for plant growth, especially in crops like pea (Pisum sativum L.). This study explores the role of histone modifications in regulating pea's response to salt ...

Histone modification is an epigenetic mechanism that regulates gene expression by altering chromatin structure and DNA accessibility for transcription. Histone modification is regulated by various ...

The accurate distribution of chromosomes in an oocyte is essential for the correct transmission of genetic information to the next generation. Now, researchers from Kyushu University have demonstrated ...

Cancers emerge from many different paths. One path begins early, in embryonic development, when a protein complex called PRC2 ...

Epigenetics is the study of various heritable alterations that control gene expression without changing the DNA sequence. 1 The name epigenetics comes from the Greek prefix “epi”, which means on top ...

The accurate distribution of chromosomes in an oocyte is essential for the correct transmission of genetic information to the next generation. Now, researchers from Kyushu University have demonstrated ...

Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of mortality worldwide, necessitating deeper insights into its molecular ...

EpiciphAI公司正研发一款液体活检产品，通过检测无细胞染色质上的组蛋白标记，确定染色质片段的组织来源，并区分该组织中与疾病相关的状态。目前该公司仍处于种子前阶段，其技术的首个应用场景为难以进行活检的组织的癌症诊断与病情监测。
