Breast cancer cells with doubled genomes may dodge immunotherapy by turning off key immune signals
An epigenetic mechanism by which tumors manage to hide from the body's immune defenses has just been described by an ...
Epigenetic modifications encompass a suite of reversible chemical and structural changes that regulate gene expression without altering the underlying DNA sequence. Key mechanisms include DNA ...
Researchers have discovered that a DNA modification called 5-formylcytosine (5fC) functions as an activating epigenetic switch that kick-starts genes in early embryonic development. This finding ...
Arc Institute, Gladstone Institutes, and University of California, San Francisco, scientists have developed an epigenetic editing platform that enables safe modification of multiple genes in primary ...
The expression of the thousands of genes present in the human cell is regulated by dynamic changes in chromatin compaction throughout the different regions of the genome. The activity of ...
Epigenetics is a rapidly growing field of study that focuses on the heritable changes in gene expression that occur without alterations to the underlying DNA sequence. These changes are caused by ...

DNA is often seen as the blueprint of life—carrying the code to govern the development and traits of an organism—but “there are things beyond the DNA sequence,” says Xiaoqi Feng, a plant geneticist at ...
