Paramutation in maize: RNA mediated trans-generational gene silencing.

Current opinion in genetics & development - 1 Apr 2010

Arteaga-Vazquez Mario Alberto, Chandler Vicki Lynn

Abstract excerpt

Paramutation involves trans-interactions between alleles or homologous sequences that establish distinct gene expression states that are heritable for generations. It was first described in maize by Alexander Brink in the 1950s, with his studies of the red1 (r1) locus. Since that time, paramutation-like phenomena have been reported in other maize genes, other plants, fungi, and animals. Paramutation can occur...
