The study of epigenetics, or how heritable changes in gene expression are regulated without modifying the coding DNA sequence, has become an increasingly important field of study in recent years. Rapid developments in our understanding of the way in which gene function is modulated by the environmen

## Abstract Astroglial glutamate transporter EAAT2/GLT1 prevents glutamateβinduced excitotoxicity in the central nervous system. Expression of EAAT2/GLT1 is dynamically regulated by neurons. The pathogenesis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) involves astroglial dysfunction, including dramatic
Expression and transposition of the Suppressormutator (Spm) transposon of maize are controlled by interacting epigenetic and autoregulatory mechanisms. Methylation of critical element sequences prevents both transcription and transposition, heritably inactivating the element. The promoter, comprisin
The Role Of Epigenetic Mechanisms In Autoimmune Disease Is Only Now Starting To Become Clear. Understanding These Mechanisms, Their Effect On Cellular Function And The Role Of Environmental Factors Is Vital To Determining How To Manage These Often Debilitating And Fatal Diseases. drawing On The Res
## Abstract Epigenetics is concerned about heritable changes in gene expression without alteration of the coding sequence. Epigenetic modification of chromatin includes methylation of genomic DNA as well as postβtranslational modification of chromatinβassociated proteins, in particular, histones. T
