{"product_id":"epigenetics-and-chromatin-lily-kingsley-9781641161268","title":"Epigenetics and Chromatin: Advanced Concepts of Cell Biology","description":"Epigenetics studies heritable genetic changes that occur due to a change in gene function, generated through processes like DNA methylation, histone modification, etc. Epigenetic changes alter the microstructure of DNA or the associated chromatin proteins leading to gene activation or silencing. Chromatin is a macromolecular complex, consisting of DNA, RNA and protein found in cells. Its primary functions are packaging DNA into more compact and denser shape, preventing DNA damage, controlling gene expression and DNA replication. The structure of chromatin is subject to change depending on the stage of the cell cycle. The aim of this book is to present researches that have transformed the understanding of epigenetics and chromatin. It is a compilation of chapters that discuss the most vital concepts and emerging trends in these fields. It will be a valuable source of reference for students and researchers alike.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lily Kingsley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1641161264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781641161268\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Callisto Reference\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/05\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 218\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.64lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.88h x 8.00w x 0.56d","brand":"Lily Kingsley","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47424457801983,"sku":"9781641161268","price":146.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c1926cfc-ed07-4a20-bbcc-028872091957.jpg?v=1761530351","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/epigenetics-and-chromatin-lily-kingsley-9781641161268","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
