    Glossary Histone Modifications

    chemical changes to histone proteins that regulate gene expression

    Histone modifications refer to chemical changes made to histone proteins, which help package DNA in the cell nucleus. These modifications, such as methylation or acetylation, can influence gene expression by either tightening or loosening the DNA around histones, thereby controlling access to genetic information. This process is crucial for regulating various biological functions and can impact conditions like alopecia by affecting the genes involved in hair growth.
