Abstract excerpt

RNA-directed DNA methylation, which is one of several RNAi-mediated pathways in the nucleus, has been highly elaborated in the plant kingdom. RNA-directed DNA methylation requires for the most part conventional DNA methyltransferases, histone modifying enzymes and RNAi proteins; however, several novel, plant-specific proteins that are essential for this process have been identified recently. DRD1 (defective in...
