Mechanisms, timescales and principles of trans-generational epigenetic inheritance in animals.

Current opinion in genetics & development - 1 Feb 2016

Klosin Adam, Lehner Ben

Abstract excerpt

Development never starts from a blank slate of DNA. Therefore, in principle, plenty beyond DNA could transmit phenotypic information from one generation to the next. However, the extent to which epigenetic information is actually transmitted between generations and whether this information is modulated by the environment are questions that have only recently started to be investigated at the molecular level. Here...
