New Piece Found In The Puzzle Of Epigenetics: Mechanism Of Fine Regulation Of RNA Synthesis Elucidated
June 16, 2009 — Scientists have identified the enzyme TFIIH kinase as an important factor in the epigenetic regulation of the cell nucleus enzyme RNA polymerase II. The findings constitute a further building block ... > full story -
Developmental Experiences May Explain 'Unexplained' Medical Symptoms?
June 16, 2009 — A new theory on the role of developmental experiences has been described. Maternal perception of a threatening environment may be transmitted to the fetus when hormones cross the placenta and affect ... > full story -
Key Target Of Aging Regulator Found
June 10, 2009 — Researchers have defined a key target of an evolutionarily conserved protein that regulates the process of aging. The study provides fundamental knowledge about key mechanisms of aging that could ... > full story -
Specific Genetic Cause Of Fetal Alcohol-Related Developmental Disorders Found
June 10, 2009 — Alcohol consumption by pregnant women hinders brain development in their children by interfering with the genetic processes that control thyroid hormone levels in the fetal brain, a new animal study ... > full story -
Knowledge Of Epigenetics Helps Scientists Develop Tool To Study Deadly Parasite’s Histone Code
May 22, 2009 — In the Japanese art of paper folding, a series of folds can make the same sheet of paper into a ballerina or baby elephant. But try unfolding the baby elephant and making it into a ballerina. It's ... > full story -
Epigenetics: 100 Reasons To Change The Way We Think About Genetics
May 18, 2009 — Increasingly, biologists are finding that non-genetic variation acquired during the life of an organism can sometimes be passed on to offspring -- a phenomenon known as epigenetic inheritance. A new ... > full story -

New Nucleotide In DNA Could Revolutionize Epigenetics
April 16, 2009 — Anyone who studied a little genetics in high school has heard of adenine, thymine, guanine and cytosine -- the A, T, G and C that make up the DNA code. But those are not the whole story. The rise of ... > full story -
New Clues To How Stem Cells Form
April 16, 2009 — A study on the nematode C. elegans shows some of the first direct evidence of a process required for epigenetic reprogramming between generations -- a finding that could shed more light on the ... > full story
