... called c-di-GMP. It has recently been shown that c-di-GMP binds to FleQ and derepresses the expression of genes responsible for biofilm formation. The structural basis of release of FleQ mediated repression by c-di-GMP is not known. Overall, FleQ appears to be a dual-regulator which can act as an ac ...

Cancer epigenetics



Cancer epigenetics is the study of epigenetic modifications to the genome of cancer cells that do not involve a change in the nucleotide sequence. Epigenetic alterations are as important as genetic mutations in a cell’s transformation to cancer, and their manipulation holds great promise for cancer prevention, detection, and therapy. In different types of cancer, a variety of epigenetic mechanisms can be perturbed, such as silencing of tumor suppressor genes and activation of oncogenes by altered CpG island methylation patterns, histone modifications, and dysregulation of DNA binding proteins. Several medications which have epigenetic impact are now used in several of these diseases.
