| Description: |
This book gives a comprehensive overview on chromatin structure and function in combination with an epigenetic view. It offers an updated collection of papers treating epigenetic phenomena in mammals, insects and plants. |
| Synopsis: |
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. |
