EPIGENETICS TODAY AND TOMORROW by B. F. Vanyushin

“…The most known epigenetic mechanisms (signals) are enzymatic DNA methylation, the histone code (various enzymatic histone modifications including acetylation, methylation, phosphorylation, ubiquitination and others), and gene silencing mediated by small RNAs (miRNA, siRNA). Very often all these processes are interconnected or even partially interchangeable. …”
