The Arabidopsis Chromatin-Modifying Nuclear siRNA Pathway Involves a Nucleolar RNA Processing Center

TL;DR: It is hypothesized that maintenance of the heterochromatic state involves locus-specific Pol IVa transcription followed by siRNA production and assembly of AGO4- and NRPD1b-containing silencing complexes within nucleolar processing centers.
Journal ArticleDOI

An ARGONAUTE4-containing nuclear processing center colocalized with Cajal bodies in Arabidopsis thaliana.

TL;DR: The results suggest a function for Cajal bodies as a center for the assembly of an AGO4/NRPD1b/siRNA complex, facilitating its function in RNA-directed gene silencing at target loci.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamic regulation of ARGONAUTE4 within multiple nuclear bodies in Arabidopsis thaliana.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that AGO4 also localizes to a second class of nuclear bodies, called AB-bodies, which are found immediately adjacent to condensed 45S ribosomal DNA (rDNA) sequences, suggesting a dynamic regulation of AGO 4 within two distinct nuclear compartments in Arabidopsis.
Journal ArticleDOI

The splicing factor SR45 affects the RNA-directed DNA methylation pathway in Arabidopsis

TL;DR: DNA methylation establishment and maintenance defects present in sr45-1 mutants are enhanced in dcl3-1 mutant background, suggesting a synergistic cooperation between SR45 and DICER-LIKE3 (DCL3) in the RdDM pathway.
