Abstract excerpt
Posttranscriptional gene silencing (PTGS) mediated by sense transgenes (S-PTGS) results in RNA degradation and DNA methylation of the transcribed region. Through a forward genetic screen, a mutant defective in the Histone3 Lysine4 di/trimethyl (H3K4me2/3) demethylase Jumonji-C (JmjC) domain-containing protein14 (JMJ14) was identified. This mutant reactivates various transgenes silenced by S-PTGS and shows reduced...
