MOM1 mediates DNA-methylation-independent silencing of repetitive sequences in Arabidopsis.

EMBO reports - 1 Dec 2006

Vaillant Isabelle, Schubert Ingo, Tourmente Sylvette, Mathieu Olivier

Abstract excerpt

The heterochromatic regions around centromeres of animal and plant chromosomes are composed of tandem repetitive sequences, interspersed with transposons and transposon derivatives. These sequences are largely transcriptionally silent and highly methylated, and are associated with specifically modified histones. Although embedded in heterochromatin, Arabidopsis 5S ribosomal RNA genes are among the most highly...
