Contents: The diversity of covalent histone tail modifications for imparting epigenetic information -- Observations of robust histone modifications at silent chromatin regions -- The representation of repressive histone marks as indications of epigenetic plasticity in different cells -- Analysis of the profiles of normal and aberrant histone lysine methylation patterns, as they occur during the transition of an embryonic to a differentiated cell or in controlled self-renewal vs. pro-neoplastic or metastatic conditions -- Elucidation of these histone modification patterns for novel advances in stem cell research, nuclear reprogramming and cancer.
