EPIGENETIC CONTROLLERS:
Epigenetic control "refers to mitotically and/or meiotically heritable variations in gene expression." — www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19127539
"Epigenetics can help to explain phenomena that traditional genetics never could. If the genome is the hardware, then the epigenome is the software. These patterns of gene expression are governed by the cellular material that surrounds your genes, that sits on top of the genes themselves. Various chemicals called epigenetic marks, sit on your genes and offer basic instructions to them, telling them to switch on or off. The objects of epigenetic study are observable characteristic changes in living organisms that are not caused by DNA sequence alterations, yet they are inheritable."
"The human genome contains roughly 25,000 genes, but the number of patterns of epigenetic marks is likely to be 50 to 100 times as large. The influence of the epigenome is tremendous, especially when you consider that it is inheritable." Nancy Mullan, MD [See: IMPORTANT PDF & TEXT FILES — The_Methyl_Group_What_It_Can_Do_for_You.pdf]
