    Cards (4)

    • Histone methylation is another epigenetic modification that involves the addition of a methyl group to histone proteins, influencing gene expression.
    • Histone acetylation/deacetylation affects chromatin structure by altering histones' charge and binding to DNA.
    • DNA methylation is the most common epigenetic modification.
    • RNA interference is a mechanism of gene regulation that involves the silencing of gene expression through the degradation of mRNA molecules.
