Descriptor English: Epigenetic Repression
Descriptor Spanish: Represión Epigenética
Descriptor represión epigenética
Scope note: Cambio de la TRANSCRIPCIÓN GENÉTICA en ciertas regiones de la CROMATINA sin que se produzcan cambios de la secuencia del ADN. Típicamente la represión epigenética es una manera de programación de cambios del desarrollo en la célula.
