Loss of RNA-Directed DNA Methylation in Maize Chromomethylase and DDM1-Type Nucleosome Remodeler Mutants.

The Plant cell - 1 Jul 2018

Fu Fang-Fang, Dawe R Kelly, Gent Jonathan I

Abstract excerpt

Plants make use of distinct types of DNA methylation characterized by their DNA methyltransferases and modes of regulation. One type, RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM), is guided by small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) to the edges of transposons that are close to genes, areas called mCHH islands in maize (Zea mays). Another type, chromomethylation, is guided by histone H3 lysine 9 methylation to heterochromatin...
