Abstract excerpt
Lysine residue 9 of histone H3 can either be acetylated or mono-, di-, or tri-methylated. These epigenetic states have a diverse impact on regulating gene transcriptional activity and chromatin organization. H3K9ac is invariably correlated with transcriptional activation, whereas H3K9me2 has been reported to be mainly located in constitutive heterochromatin in Arabidopsis. Here, we present epigenetic landscapes...
