Epigenetics and Chromatin [electronic resource] / edited by Philippe Jeanteur.
| Call Number | 572 |
| Title | Epigenetics and Chromatin edited by Philippe Jeanteur. |
| Physical Description | XIII, 266 p. online resource. |
| Series | Progress in Molecular and Subcellular Biology, 0079-6484 ; 38 |
| Contents | Chromatin Remodeling Factors and DNA Replication -- Epigenetic Inheritance of Chromatin States Mediated by Polycomb and Trithorax Group Proteins in Drosophila -- How to Pack the Genome for a Safe Trip -- Chromatin Modifications on the Inactive X Chromosome -- Chromatin Mechanisms in Drosophila Dosage Compensation -- DNA Methylation in Epigenetic Control of Gene Expression -- The Epigenetic Breakdown of Cancer Cells: From DNA Methylation to Histone Modifications -- Developmental Regulation of the ?-Globin Gene Locus -- Epigenetic Regulation of Mammalian Imprinted Genes: From Primary to Functional Imprints -- Seed Development and Genomic Imprinting in Plants. |
| Summary | Epigenetics refers to heritable patterns of gene expression which do not depend on alterations of genomic DNA sequence. This book provides a state-of-the-art account of a few selected hot spots by scientists at the edge in this extremely active field. It puts special emphasis on two main streams of research. One is the role of post-translational modifications of proteins, mostly histones, on chromatin structure and accessibility. The other one deals with parental genomic imprinting, a process which allows to express a few selected genes from only one of the parental allele while extinguishing the other. |
