I am interested in finding out the molecular mechanisms by which the environmental stimuli may influence epigenetic modifications to allow transcription of specific regions of DNA.
Hi Ankur! I would suggest the 2003 review article from Jaenisch and Bird in Nature Genetics; http://www.nature.com/ng/journal/v33/n3s/full/ng1089.html , as a basic read in this area. You will find specific examples of diet influence on DNA methylation which alters gene expression, and many more really useful references!
