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,” ...
A new study has decoded how pea plants respond to salt stress through precise epigenetic reprogramming. Researchers created the first genome-wide map of four major histone modifications—H3K4me3, ...
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 ...
In a recent study published in the journal Science Advances, a group of researchers investigated the role of histone modifications in human aging by developing and evaluating histone-specific age ...
Researchers at the University of Cologne and University Hospital Cologne have determined that the novel mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines not only induce acquired immune responses such as antibody ...
