The 2024 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to American scientists Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun for their groundbreaking discovery of microRNA (or miRNA) and its role in post-transcriptional gene regulation. This control plays a critical role in development and cellular function.

UNC researchers now show that these two factors can directly associate with one another, modulating cancer-cell-specific programs of gene expression. ” They found that EZH2 possesses two different binding patterns on chromatin in acute leukemia cells, eliciting two distinct gene-regulatory programs (Figure 1).

These modifications regulate gene expression without changing the sequence or structure of DNA. The tool could also prove to be safer than conventional CRISPR-based gene therapies as it does not involve DNA editing, and thus would not cause potentially harmful off-target genomic changes. Epigenetic Editing with CRISPR.

Nutrigenomics is the science studying the relationship between human genome, nutrition and health. In part, the success of the Human Genome Project has also paved a path for the novel concept of nutrigenomics. Nutrigenomics tests are capable of determining the influence of genes on nutrient requirements and metabolism.
