This is the definition of epigenome I found – ‘The epigenome is made up of chemical compounds and proteins that can attach to DNA and direct such actions as turning genes on or off’
What is responsible for creating the chemical compounds and proteins that are apart of the epigenome?
I remember proteins are created from the DNA.
In: Biology
The answer is that proteins coded by DNA then add little extra bits to other pieces of DNA. Those little bits are the epigenome.
