Journal ArticleDOI
Histone methylation in higher plants
TL;DR: The aim of this review is to summarize the biochemical, genetic, and molecular action of histone methylation in two plants, the dicot Arabidopsis and the monocot rice.
Journal ArticleDOI
MicroRNAs Inhibit the Translation of Target mRNAs on the Endoplasmic Reticulum in Arabidopsis
Shengben Li,Lin Liu,Lin Liu,Xiaohong Zhuang,Yu Yu,Yu Yu,Xigang Liu,Xia Cui,Lijuan Ji,Zhiqiang Pan,Xiaofeng Cao,Beixin Mo,Fuchun Zhang,Natasha V. Raikhel,Liwen Jiang,Xuemei Chen +15 more
TL;DR: It is shown that the translation inhibition, but not the mRNA cleavage activity, of Arabidopsis miRNAs requires ALTERED MERISTEM PROGRAM1 (AMP1), and AMP1-independent recruitment of miRNA target transcripts to membrane fractions shows that mi RNAs inhibit the translation of target RNAs on the ER.
Journal ArticleDOI
Arabidopsis REF6 is a histone H3 lysine 27 demethylase
TL;DR: It is shown that RELATIVE of EARLY FLOWERing 6 (REF6), also known as Jumonji domain–containing protein 12 (JMJ12), specifically demethylates H3K27me3 and H3k27me2, whereas its metazoan counterparts, the KDM4 proteins, are H 3K9 and H4K36 demethylases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Epigenetic reprogramming that prevents transgenerational inheritance of the vernalized state
Pedro Crevillén,Hongchun Yang,Xia Cui,Christiaan Greeff,Martin Trick,Qi Qiu,Xiaofeng Cao,Caroline Dean +7 more
TL;DR: It is shown that a hypomorphic mutation in the jumonji-domain-containing protein ELF6 impaired the reactivation of FLC in reproductive tissues, leading to the inheritance of a partially vernalized state.
Journal ArticleDOI
ARGONAUTE10 and ARGONAUTE1 Regulate the Termination of Floral Stem Cells through Two MicroRNAs in Arabidopsis
Lijuan Ji,Xigang Liu,Jun Yan,Wenming Wang,Rae Eden Yumul,Yun Ju Kim,Thanh Theresa Dinh,Jun Liu,Xia Cui,Binglian Zheng,Manu Agarwal,Chunyan Liu,Xiaofeng Cao,Guiliang Tang,Xuemei Chen +14 more
TL;DR: A network of microRNAs and transcription factors governing the temporal program of floral stem cells is established and light is shed on the relationships among different AGO genes, which tend to exist in gene families in multicellular organisms.
