• Methylation of DNA (transcriptional silencing)
• Histone methylation
• Histone acetylation

• H3K4me1 and H3K27ac - these modifications mark enhancers, regions of the genome of cell-type specific activation of gene expression
• H3K4me3 - modification found in the promoters and active genes
• H3K9me3 - marks constitutively repressed heterochromatin and works together with DNA methylation
• H3K27me3 - marks regions of the genome, which are transcriptionally inactive
• H3K36me3 - modification linked to transcriptional elongation and therefore associated with gene expression
• 5-mC - addition of a methyl group at the 5 position of cytosines is associated with gene silencing
• 5-hmC - is a DNA modification and results from the enzymatic oxidation of 5-mC by the TET family of cytosine oxygenases. 5-hmC modification at a gene is associated with its expression level
