Abstract excerpt
Maintenance of genomic integrity is essential for sustained cell proliferation in plant meristems. In Arabidopsis thaliana, the DNA damage response is controlled by the transcription factor SUPPRESSOR OF GAMMA RESPONSE 1 (SOG1), which regulates the expression of genes involved in DNA repair, cell cycle arrest, and stem cell death. However, the mechanisms underlying the correlation between DNA damage signaling and...
