The inheritance of gene expression patterns, in the absence of the initiating signal, is called Epigenetic regulation.

Epigenetic changes can be defined as inherited variations which are not present in the DNA sequence. Gene expression is regulated at different levels and not merely in response to DNA modifications. Examples of epigenetic control include DNA methylation, histone deacetylation and mi-RNA expression.

Epigenetic mechanisms add an adaptive layer of control in the regulation of gene expression that allows an organism to adapt to a dynamic environment.

Epigenetic regulation increases the functional intricacy of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) by changing chromatin structure, nuclear organization as well as transcript stability.

What would be the difference between a gene mutation and a chromosomal mutation?
Anton [14]

Answer:

A gene mutation can be described as errors in the nucleotide sequence of a gene due to errors in the DNA replication process or due to any mutagen. On the other hand, a chromosomal mutation can be described as a change in the structure of a DNA or changes in the number of chromosomes.

A gene mutation occurs in a single gene whereas a chromosomal mutation will affect many genes. Hence, gene mutations will be comparatively less lethal than chromosomal mutations.

Example of gene mutation: Sickle cell anemia

Example of chromosomal mutation:  Down's Syndrome
