    0:00 Epigenetics: Epi+ Genetics Literally means "above" or "on top of" genetics
    3:01 DNA methylation, the addition of a methyl group, or a chemical cap, to part of the DNA molecule, which prevents certain genes from being expressed.
    7:30 (Without histones, DNA would be too long to fit inside cells.) If histones squeeze DNA tightly, the DNA cannot be "read" by the cell. Modifications that relax the histones can make the DNA accessible to proteins that "read" genes.

    I feel like i have got my dronacharya to learn genetics... Sir thankyou so much sir . Keep uploading about genetics,, there's a list of genetic test and etc etc things listed in harvard online courses kindly explain those not everyone is affordable to learn there. Please sir please. And please explain about base editing expt undergoing in Japan for genetic disease treatment

    Question..... can anyone explain or give clarity on the following ... does any change to typical Purine & Pyrimidine, folate, B6 or B12 pathways during pre or early post natal periods result in heritable genetics that could be passed from that baby should they procreate in later life?

    The level of the complexity of the body just went through the roof. Finding therapies and new drugs for diseases just became very very very difficult if genes are being turned on and off by almost any external factor.

    Hello Sir, does epigenetic changes are reverseible?

    • @BiologyLectures
      @BiologyLectures  2 роки тому +1

      Unlike genetic changes, epigenetic changes are reversible and do not change your DNA sequence, but they can change how your body reads a DNA sequence

      In addition to methylation, epigenetics also contains histone modification.

    • @BiologyLectures
      @BiologyLectures  9 місяців тому

      Environmental Factors: Environmental exposures, such as diet, stress, pollutants, and lifestyle choices
      Developmental Processes: Epigenetic changes are crucial during development and can result from the sequential activation or inactivation of specific genes
      Disease and Pathological Conditions: Epigenetic alterations are implicated in various diseases, including cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, and autoimmune diseases.

    Does DNA methylation only prevent certain genes from being expressed ?

    • @BiologyLectures
      @BiologyLectures  2 роки тому

      Not all genes are active at all times. DNA methylation is one of several epigenetic mechanisms that cells use to control gene expression.

  • @genetilocos3105
    @genetilocos3105 Рік тому +1

    I have a question that is making me sick. I thought that methylation should always be interpreted as a repressive mark. So, how is it that H3K4me3, H3K36me, and H3K79me for example could lead to gene expression}? thank you

    • @BiologyLectures
      @BiologyLectures  Рік тому

      DNA methylation is a fundamental epigenetic event associated with physiologic and pathologic conditions, including cancer. Hypermethylation of CpG islands at active gene promoters leads to transcriptional repression, whereas hypomethylation is associated with gene overexpression.

      @@BiologyLectures thank you very much! I will check out the paper. So, there are histone's methylations that are repressive (like H3K9me3 or H3K27me3) and methylations that are permissive, right? Maybe it depends on context, signals, or that are made in different aminoacids? I will read the paper btw. Thanks again!
