Mutator transposon activation after UV-B involves chromatin remodeling.

Epigenetics - 16 May 2010

Qüesta Julia I, Walbot Virginia, Casati Paula

Abstract excerpt

Spontaneous silencing of MuDR/Mu transposons occurs in approximately 10-100% of the progeny of an active plant, and once silenced reactivation is very rare. To date, only radiation treatments have reactivated silenced Mu; for example UV-B radiation reactivated Mutator activities. Here we have investigated possible mechanisms by which UV-B could reactivate Mu transposons by monitoring transcript abundance,...
