Study Notes
Gene Expression Modifications
- Modified gene expression leads to a loss of histones.
- This results in an imbalance of repressive and activating histone modifications.
- There is an evasion and expansion of heterochromatin.
- Transcriptional changes occur as a consequence.
- The nuclear lamina breaks down, alongside chromatin remodeling.
