About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
“This well-illustrated book is an excellent source of cutting-edge scientific information on epigenetic marks such as cytosine methylation and cytosine hydroxymethylation, histone tail modifications, histone variants and nucleosome positional information, recognized to play a fundamental role in cancer development and progression. … There are very few books available on this subject. This one will be very useful for students and researchers interested in knowing more about epigenetic alterations in oncogenesis.” (Omer Iqbal, Doody’s Book Reviews, August, 2013)Editors and Affiliations
