How Environmental Information Is Transmitted by Non-DNA Molecules in the Sperm – Technology Networks
A new study from McGill, published recently in Developmental Cell, has made a significant advance in identifying how environmental information is transmitted by…
It has long been understood that a parents DNA is the principal determinant of health and disease in offspring. Yet inheritance via DNA is only part of the story; a fathers lifestyle such as diet, being overweight and stress levels have been linked to health consequences for his offspring. This occurs through the epigenome – heritable biochemical marks associated with the DNA and proteins that bind it. But how the information is transmitted at fertilization along with the exact mechanisms and molecules…
