An epigenome editing toolkit to dissect the mechanisms of gene regulation

Understanding how genes are regulated at the molecular level is a central challenge in modern biology. This complex mechanism is mainly driven by the interaction between proteins called transcription factors, DNA regulatory regions, and epigenetic modifications — chemical alterations that change chromatin structure. The set of epigenetic modifications of a cell’s genome is referred to … Read more
