Overview

Epigenetics publishes international research into heritable changes in gene expression caused by mechanisms other than the modification of the DNA sequence. The aim of Epigenetics is to provide an unprecedented forum where epigenetic mechanisms and their role in diverse biological processes can be revealed, shared and discussed. Topics covered include (but are not limited to): DNA methylation Nucleosome positing and modification Gene silencing Imprinting Chromatin remodeling Non-coding RNA Dosage compensation Epigenetic therapy and diagnostics Cancer epigenetics Neuroepigenetics Epigenetics accepts original research articles, reviews and brief reports.
