A major advance in biology combines DNA and RNA and could revolutionise cancer treatments

Our genes contain all the instructions our body needs to function, but their expression must be finely regulated to guarantee that each cell performs its role optimally. This is where DNA and RNA epigenetics comes in : a series of mechanisms that act as markers on genes, to control their activity without modifying the DNA or RNA sequence itself.
