Epigenetic inheritance of gene silencing is maintained by a self-tuning mechanism based on resource competition

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Omer Karin from the Department University of WA, UK have published the paper: Epigenetic inheritance of gene silencing is maintained by a self-tuning mechanism based on resource competition, in the Journal: (JOURNAL) of January/18,/2023
  • what: To address this question the authors focus on transgenerational epigenetic inheritance Caenorhabditis elegans. response to a trigger worms silence a target gene for multiple generations resisting strong dilution due to growth and reproduction. The authors show that these properties imply the fine-tuning of biochemical rates which the silencing system is positioned near the transition to . . .
