The accurate distribution of chromosomes in an oocyte is essential for the correct transmission of genetic information to the next generation. Now, researchers from Kyushu University have demonstrated ...
Histone modification is an epigenetic mechanism that enables fine-tuning of gene expression. Mutation or dysregulation of proteins associated with histone modification (called “writers,” “erasers,” ...
Histone modification is an epigenetic mechanism that regulates gene expression by altering chromatin structure and DNA accessibility for transcription. Histone modification is regulated by various ...
Modification of histone tails, by acetylation, methylation or phosphorylation, affects the local chromatin structure and the transcriptional regulation of adjacent genes. Pericentric heterochromatin ...
Researchers have determined whether a specific chemical modification of a protein that packages the genome called a histone affects gene activity and cell proliferation. Researchers have determined ...
A new study has decoded how pea plants respond to salt stress through precise epigenetic reprogramming. Researchers created the first genome-wide map of four major histone modifications—H3K4me3, ...
A picture of a mouse MII stage eggs with the location of chromosomes (green) and the distribution of the histone modification H3K4me3 (purple). The team confirmed that H3K4me3 was significantly ...
Scientists have developed SpaMosaic, an AI-driven method to integrate fragmented spatial multi-omics datasets, enabling unified molecular maps across tissues. The tool combines contrastive learning ...

How plants remember stress through epigenetics
Plants don’t just react to stress — some can ‘remember’ it through epigenetic changes that influence how future generations respond. This stress memory, often mediated by changes in DNA methylation, ...
