Epigenetics: connecting environment and genotype to phenotype and disease.

Journal of dental research - 1 May 2009

Barros S P, Offenbacher S

Abstract excerpt

Genetic information is encoded not only by the linear sequence of DNA, but also by epigenetic modifications of chromatin structure that include DNA methylation and covalent modifications of the proteins that bind DNA. These "epigenetic marks" alter the structure of chromatin to influence gene expression. Methylation occurs naturally on cytosine bases at CpG sequences and is involved in controlling the correct...
