Hey everyone,
Here is a link to a video that Mrs. Magnuson shared with her class. It is a nice overview of epigenetic mechanisms that we started talking about in class today...methylation and acetylation. There are things I don't love (there's no such thing as a "lip" cell but he's just trying to make it simpler). It also has WAY more information than you need (ex: you don't need to know that methylation happens on cytosine, you don't need the enzymes that do acetylation). But...it is a good general overview.
ALSO...for now...SKIP the microRNA stuff!!!!! PLEASE DON'T CONFUSE YOURSELF TRYING TO UNDERSTAND microRNA.
Enjoy! Ms. L
