Epigenetics

these can be found in gene, gene products (proteins) and function / structural binding blocks of life. Epigenetic regulation is one important process

Overall this is the strudt off gene activity and how it can be controlled without changing the DNA sequence itself

epigenetics 2

chnage to underlying DNA

  • polymorphism (inconsequential) and mutation (consequential)

Epigentics

  • regulates gene effectively on/off

  • Changes how the genome is read

  • Behaviours and environmental factors can cause regulatory changes that affect the way the genes work

What makes epigenetics helpful

better understanding of pathogens

Formation of the disease pattern

Can have developed new approaches to the pathology diagnostics and treatment
