EPIGENETICS The heart of future biology
Epigenetic is the modern technique which involves the changes in
the expression of the gene without change in the basic DNA sequence that
determines the correct order of nucleotides with chromosomes and genome.
Epigenetics research includes the appliance of strong alteration techniques for
DNA.
Epigenetics is associated with
DNA modification or protein modification. It includes histone modification, DNA
methylation as well as chromatin modification. These modification effects the
regulation of gene expression.
It generally takes information
from the nucleus of eukaryotic cells (having the nucleus in the cells) and
packed that information. One of the examples of the epigenetic is the DNA
methylation which is done by adding a methyl group to the cytosine. Methylation
is a controlled process because of an enzyme that is methyltransferase in cell
division
