Epigenetics of infectious diseases [electronic resource] / Walter Doerfler, Josep Casadesús, editors.
The present volume of Epigenetics and Human Health is devoted to the patho-epigenetics of viral and microbial infections, an exiting new field of disease-related epigenetic research. As recognized during the past years, epigenetic reprogramming of pathogen and host genome functions - the latter freq...
