Three billion people in the world don't have easy access to a toilet and thousands of kids die a day from water-related complications.

The shower of questions come with such high frequency that they find themselves at a loss in answering even a portion of them all. Moreover, since most of them never faced these questions before this assault

Dans les cellules souches embryonnaires, des protéines d’histone, responsables de l’empaquetage de l’ADN et pouvant être transformées chimiquement par méthylation ou acétylation, maintiennent les gènes en stand by. Ces méthylations et acétylations peuvent être considérées comme des interrupteurs, des marqueurs d’activation et de désactivation de certains gènes. La méthylation est l'attache ou la substitution d'un groupement méthyle sur un substrat.
