Unraveling the Secrets of How Epigenetic Landscape Modulates Transcription Factors
In a major breakthrough in the field of epigenetics, researchers have discovered that the epigenetic landscape can modulate the activity of transcription factors. The findings, published in the journal Nature Communications, provide insights into how certain genes are regulated, which could lead to a better understanding of diseases such as cancer.
In the study, researchers used a combination of cell-based and computational methods to analyze the epigenetic landscape in human cells. The team found that the epigenetic landscape can modulate the activity of transcription factors, which control the expression of genes. The researchers also showed that the epigenetic landscape can be modified to regulate the activity of transcription factors, which could potentially lead to new treatments for diseases such as cancer.
