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. 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.
Our studies, however, indicate that the amount of aberrant methylation that takes place in normal tissues is closely correlated with lifetime cancer risk, raising the possibility that this epigenetic change may also contribute to tumor susceptibility.
