A novel allele of SIR2 reveals a heritable intermediate state of gene silencing.

Genetics - 17 May 2021

Farris Delaney, Saxton Daniel S, Rine Jasper

Abstract excerpt

Genetic information acquires additional meaning through epigenetic regulation, the process by which genetically identical cells can exhibit heritable differences in gene expression and phenotype. Inheritance of epigenetic information is a critical step in maintaining cellular identity and organismal health. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, one form of epigenetic regulation is the transcriptional silencing of two...
