Transcript
EXPLAIN how adding or removing METHYL groups
can control gene expression and what role
environmental influences can play in an
organism’s epigenome.
• Adding methyl groups to DNA turns genes off
• Removing methyl groups turns genes on
• Environmental influences such as:
Diet, exercise, stress, chemicals
can change methyl tags on DNA and change
gene expression
• Methyl tag patterns (epigenome) can be passed
to children and even grandchildren
