histone arginine methylation
n=1
a: Histone arginine methylation ~
b: a dimmer switch for gene activation
What:
"Professor Knox has some early data to show that one epigenetic process called “histone arginine methylation†is involved in switching on the interleukin 8 gene. Histone arginine methylation is like a dimmer switch for gene activation. Different levels and positions of histone arginine methylation ‘fine tune' how active a gene is."

METAMIA is a free database of analogy and metaphor. Anyone can contribute or search. The subject matter can be anything. Science is popular, but poetry is encouraged. The goal is to integrate our fluid muses with the stark literalism of a relational database. Metamia is like a girdle for your muses, a cognitive girdle.
