The Rice NAD+-Dependent Histone Deacetylase OsSRT1 Targets Preferentially to Stress- and Metabolism-Related Genes and Transposable Elements
25 Jun 2013
Abstract excerpt
Histone acetylation/deacetylation is an important chromatin modification for epigenetic regulation of gene expression. Silent information regulation2 (Sir2)-related sirtuins are nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide (NAD(+))-dependent histone deacetylases (HDAC). The mammalian sirtuin family comprises 7 members (SIRT1-7) that act in different cellular compartments to regulate metabolism and aging. The rice genome...
