Embryo-specific epigenetic mechanisms reconstitute the CHH methylation landscape during Arabidopsis embryogenesis
2023-04-08
Abstract excerpt
The modification of flowering plant DNA by CHH methylation acts primarily to silence transposable elements, of which many active copies are present in Arabidopsis thaliana . During embryogenesis, the CHH methylation landscape is dramatically reprogrammed, resulting in exceedingly high levels of this modification upon mature embryo formation. The mechanisms constituting the remodeling process, and its function in...
