DNA methylation and histone modification influence each other during development. Histone methylation can help to direct DNA methylation patterns, and DNA methylation seems to serve as a template ...

Histone modification can also attract DNA methyltransferases to initiate cytosine methylation, which in turn can reinforce histone modification patterns conducive to silencing. Experiments in ...

Thus, histone modifications generally represent a more complex and diverse mechanism to affect gene transcription than DNA methylation. In fact, one effect of DNA methylation can be to recruit ...

the most established and well-researched of which are histone modifications and DNA methylation. “What's exciting about the field is that our knowledge of what actually regulates the epigenome is ...

To compact the DNA, plants use various epigenetic marks, including DNA methylation and modifications of the histone proteins that organize and package the DNA. These two marks reinforce each other ...

This study provides valuable findings on the role of site-specific DNA methylation changes during spermatogenesis and their contribution to paternal epigenetic inheritance. The study proposes that ...

DNA methylation, and histone modifications. Under Iestyn’s leadership, Richard Koche has been appointed as the Head of ERIL and leader of the computational unit and Pierre-Jacques Hamard has been ...

Conclusions Imprinted genes were identified in skeletal muscle gene networks and exercise-associated DNA methylation change. Exercise-associated DNA methylation modification could rewind the ...

Epigenetic modifications, such as DNA methylation and histone modifications, can affect gene expression by altering the accessibility of DNA to transcription factors and other regulatory proteins. DNA ...
