Abstract excerpt
DNA methylation, a dynamic epigenetic mark influencing gene expression, is regulated by DNA demethylases that remove methylated cytosines at genomic regions marked by the INCREASED DNA METHYLATION (IDM) complex. In Arabidopsis, IDM3, a small α-crystalline domain-containing protein, stabilises the IDM complex. To investigate its role in tomato, we generated slidm3 mutants using genome editing. These mutants...
