"Epigenetics refers to the heritable changes with respect to the gene expression that occurs without any change in the DNA sequence of an organism. DNA Methylation and Histone modifications are the two main epigenetic mechanisms. Epigenetic does not involve the change in the genome but it refers to the change in the expression patterns in the genome. Thus it has chances to result in cancerous growth. Journal Article is sometimes called a Scientific Article, a Peer-Reviewed Article, or a Scholarly Research Article. Together, journal articles in a particular field are often referred to as The Literature.
Journal articles are most often Primary Research Articles. However, they can also be Review Articles. These types of articles have different aims and requirements. Sometimes, an article describes a new tool or method.
Because articles in scientific journals are specific, meticulously cited and peer-reviewed, journal databases are the best place to look for information on previous research on your species. Without a background in the field, journal articles may be hard to understand - however, you do not need to understand an entire article to be able to get valuable information from it.
