... In a eukaryotic cell, DNA is not naked. The double-strand is bound by histone proteins to create the famous beads-on-a-string form of chromatin. The ‘beads’ are nucleosomes, and they are bundled together to give chromatin fibers. Chromatin can be extended (the transcriptionally active form) But can ...

Therapeutic gene modulation

Therapeutic gene modulation refers to the practice of altering the expression of a gene at one of various stages, with a view to alleviate some form of ailment. It differs from gene therapy in that gene modulation seeks to alter the expression of an endogenous gene (perhaps through the introduction of a gene encoding a novel modulatory protein) whereas gene therapy concerns the introduction of a gene whose product aids the recipient directly.Modulation of gene expression can be mediated at the level of transcription by DNA-binding agents (which may be artificial transcription factors), small molecules, or synthetic oligonucleotides. It may also be mediated post-transcriptionally through RNA interference.
