Previous work showed that histone ‘readers’, which bind to post-translational modifications on histones, may be upregulated in melanoma and thereby upregulate oncogenes. Given that the histone reader ...

A new study shows how histones undergo correct chemical modifications during synthesis to guide new therapies.

CpG density and epigenetic modification state modulate DNA mechanics, altering its intrinsic compatibility with nucleosome formation.

The Warburg effect describes how cancer cells switch from oxidative phosphorylation to glycolysis even in oxygen-rich ...
