To generate random floating-point numbers whose lower bound is 0 but upper bound is greater than 1 (or, in the case of negative numbers, whose lower bound is less than -1 and upper bound is 0), multiply the random number by the non-zero bound.
Epigenetic Changes Can Cause Cancer. A transgene designed to attract methylation to the promoter of a tumor-suppressor gene leads to tumorigenesis in a mouse model.By Ashley P. Taylor | July 25, 2014. Changes in gene methylation alone can trigger cancer, according to a mouse study published today (July 25) in the Journal of Clinical Investigation. transgene designed to attract methylation to the promoter of a tumor-suppressor gene leads to tumorigenesis in a mouse model.

Consequently, chronic stress might instead lead to depression or other mood disorders triggered by epigenetic changes. Potash notes that, eventually, doctors may be able to look for these epigenetic changes in DNA isolated from a patientâs blood to predict or diagnose psychiatric illnesses.
