The epigenetic state of chromatin, gene activity, and chromosomal positions are interrelated. A research team from the IPK Leibniz Institute (IPK) and the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) has investigated how the chromosomal location affects epigenetic stability and gene expression through chromosome engineering. The results are published in the journal New Phytologist. The epigenetic state of chromatin, gene activity, and chromosomal positions are interrelated.
