Abstract excerpt
Chromatin reconstitution after DNA replication and repair is essential for the inheritance of epigenetic information, but mechanisms underlying such a process are still poorly understood. Previously, we proposed that Arabidopsis BRU1 functions to ensure the chromatin reconstitution. Loss-of-function mutants of BRU1 are hypersensitive to genotoxic stresses and cause release of transcriptional gene silencing of...
