Epimutations driven by small RNAs arise frequently but most have limited duration in Caenorhabditis elegans.

Nature ecology & evolution - 1 Nov 2020

Beltran Toni, Shahrezaei Vahid, Katju Vaishali, Sarkies Peter

Abstract excerpt

Epigenetic regulation involves changes in gene expression independent of DNA sequence variation that are inherited through cell division. In addition to a fundamental role in cell differentiation, some epigenetic changes can also be transmitted transgenerationally through meiosis. Epigenetic alterations (epimutations) could thus contribute to heritable variation within populations and be subject to evolutionary...
