Epigenetics: relations to disease and laboratory findings.

Current medicinal chemistry - 1 Jan 2007

Maekawa Masato, Watanabe Yoshihisa

Abstract excerpt

Epigenetics is a postmeiotic modification of gene expression that is independent of the primary DNA sequence. DNA methylation, methylated DNA binding proteins, and histone modification-related enzymes are associated with epigenetics. Abnormalities in DNA methylation of CpG islands which are important for gene expression control, affect gene expression, which may influence carcinogenesis, aging, and other...
