Epigenetics Antibodies

Epigenetics Antibodies Overview

Epigenetics Antibodies target the proteins, enzymes, and modifications that control gene expression without altering the underlying DNA sequence. Epigenetic mechanisms—including DNA methylation, histone acetylation, histone methylation, chromatin remodeling, and non-coding RNA regulation—determine when and how genes are turned on or off. These processes are vital for embryonic development, cellular differentiation, tissue maintenance, and adaptive responses to environmental cues.

Disruption of epigenetic regulation is linked to a wide range of diseases. Aberrant DNA methylation is a hallmark of cancer, histone modification imbalances contribute to neurodegenerative and psychiatric disorders, and immune dysregulation is increasingly tied to epigenetic misregulation. By employing Epigenetics Antibodies, scientists can study the proteins and modifications that maintain or disrupt normal gene regulation. Because epigenetic states are dynamic and reversible, they also present compelling targets for new therapies, making Epigenetics Antibodies critical for both discovery and translational research.
