Abstract
The genetic landscape faced by a living cell is constantly changing. Developmental transitions, environmental shifts, and pathogenic invasions lend a dynamic character to both the genome and its activity pattern. We study a variety of non-canonical mechanisms that are utilized by cells adapting to genetic change and maintaining those adaptations through time and cell division. At the root of these studies are questions of how a cell can distinguish remember distinctions between “self” vs. “nonself” and “wanted” vs. “unwanted” gene expression.
