Street signs in the talk indicate breaks between sections January 11, 2010 August, 2011 Some scientists respond to the hype! Why are so many people talking about epigenetics and chromatin these days? Epigenetics
Heritable changes in gene expression that are not due to any alteration in the DNA sequence
Epigenetics in Health and Disease Epigenetics and Obesity A link between maternal diet, epigenetics and asthma Gene Coding vs. Control of Gene Expression Central Dogma One Epigenetic Mechanism Gene expression Gene inhibition Maxwell, A, (2009) Lab Medicine, 40, 171-178.

Two methyltransferase genes: DNMT1a and DNMT1b
4.2% cytosines methylated
12.2% CpGs methylated

DNA methylation is associated with repression of gene expression across many species
The FAIRE technique enriches for open chromatin
