Transcription factors
Epigenetics
Regulation of gene expression without change
in DNA sequence
Block access to promotor to prevent expression
Example: DNA methylation

2010 MFMER | slide-8
Accessible DNA
DNA in one cell is 9 feet long; must fit in small package
Folded and condensed around histones (scaffolding
proteins) to form chromatin
Uncondensed DNA is where active transcription occurs
Genes under active transcription

Epigenetics
Regulation of gene expression without change
in DNA sequence
Open or close chromatin by modifying histones
Example: Histone acetylation
Less transcription
More transcription

Conclusions
Epigenetics a rich field in human disease
biology
Important implications for prevention, tumor
diagnosis, and therapy
The future is NOW: stool DNA for CRC
screening
Novel diagnostic applications:
Distinguish cancer from normal tissue
Accurately classify GI tumors by location
