Abstract excerpt
DNA and histone methylation coregulate heterochromatin formation and gene silencing in animals and plants. To identify factors involved in maintaining gene silencing, we conducted a forward genetic screen for mutants that release the silenced transgene Pro35S::NEOMYCIN PHOSPHOTRANSFERASE II in the transgenic Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) line L119 We identified MAT4/SAMS3/MTO3/AT3G17390, which encodes...
