Symposium

[S09] Epigenetics: From Chromosome to Embryogenesis

Fri. Jun 8, 2018 4:00 PM - 6:30 PM Room E (2F Fukujyu)

Chairpersons : Hiroyuki Takeda (Univ. of Tokyo) / Tatsuo Fukagawa (Osaka Univ.)

Epigenetics is defined as the study of heritable changes in gene expression that do not involve changes to the underlying DNA sequence. Epigenetic change can occur under natural condition, but might be influenced by several factors including age, the environment/lifestyle, and disease state. Therefore, epigenetics is related to various biological events. In this symposium, we discuss epigenetic events from different views from single cell level to organism context and try to understand mechanisms of how epigenetic changes are involved in various biological events.
