Silencing in action: how cells ‘repress’ genomic remnants of ancient viruses

Science & Technology Researchers have identified key cellular control sites that regulate gene expression and prevent the activation of ancient viral sequences in the genome.

20 February 2023 DNA is shown as green strands wrapped around histones represented as green spheres. Transcription factors (lilac spheres) are shown binding to DNA locations with our without methyl groups (white spheres). The background contains a heat map from the paper.

Studying epigenetic regulation at the single-molecule level

In a first-of-its-kind study, EMBL researchers have shown how DNA methylation across the genome contributes to the precise regulation of gene expression.
