The term epigenetics is typically poorly defined but most often we are thinking of methylation occuring directly on the DNA (hence the importance of saying "DNA sequence" and not just "DNA") or on histone tails. The definition as presented might also make some people in the field of niche construction unhappy but this is a story for another time. You should have a look at this post for more information | |
