A Physics-based Model Reveals Mechanisms of Epigenetic Memory

2026-01-20

Abstract excerpt

In multi-cellular eukaryotic organisms, cell type and specific functional identity are defined by the epigenetic patterning of chemical modifications to DNA and chromatin that modulate the expression and silencing of specific genes. When a cell divides, histones containing important epigenetic marks are distributed between the two daughter strands leading to a temporary dilution of epigenetic information and cell...
