Gene expression differences among primates are associated with changes in a histone epigenetic modification.

Genetics - 1 Apr 2011

Cain Carolyn E, Blekhman Ran, Marioni John C, Gilad Yoav

Abstract excerpt

Changes in gene regulation are thought to play an important role in speciation and adaptation, especially in primates. However, we still know relatively little about the mechanisms underlying regulatory evolution. In particular, the extent to which epigenetic modifications underlie gene expression differences between primates is not yet known. Our study focuses on an epigenetic histone modification, H3K4me3,...
