MULTIPLE CHOICE 1. What genetic process is likely responsible for the occurrence of asthma in only one of a pair of identical twins? a. Epigenetic modifications b. Genomic imprinting c. Transgenerational inheritance d. Methylation ANS: A Epigenetic modifications can cause individuals with the same deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) sequences (such as identical twins) to have different disease profiles. Imprinting means that either the copy of a gene inherited through the sperm or th...

Lecture notes on Epigenetics

As a concept the “idea” of an “epigenetic code” has simplified the way we can describe the mechanistic elements that the cell uses to recognize and elicit epigenetic or aberrant epigenetic regulation in a cancer cell. Generally speaking, there are three “types” of regulatory protein known as “readers,” “writers,” or “erasers” of the epigenetic code. These are most generally associated with proteins that interact with histones through histone PTMs, although some have s...
