Heterochromatin: an epigenetic point of view in aging
Aging: changes in genome infrastructure Biochemical pathways that alter the physical organization of the genome could play a prominent role in age-related cellular degeneration. Chromosomal DNA is wound around proteins known as histones; when such assemblies are packed closely together, the genes in...
