The Mechanism, Adaptive Fitness, and Evolution of Galactose Induced Transcriptional Memory in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Description:

Certain inducible genes show faster reactivation if they were recently expressed. This epigenetic phenomenon is called transcriptional memory and is inherited for several generations after the first round of induction. During this phase, genes show several conserved molecular features that are essential for faster reactivation: peripheral localization of the gene,...
