Some diseases are linked to the under or over expression of specific genes. A particular cancer is characterized by the overexpression of a gene. Do you predict the histones associated with this gene to be acetylated? Describe why this would lead to

increased gene expression and how histone acetyl transfer (HAT) and histone deacetylase (HDAC) could be involved. What will be an ideal response?
