Project description:EDM2 is a PHD finger-containing histone binding protein in Arabidopsis thaliana (Arabidopsis) that affects levels of the transposon silencing mark H3K9me2. Here we report on genome-wide profiling by ChIP-seq and RNA-seq of EDM2-mediated effects on H3K9me2 and rRNA-depleted transcripts, respectively. EDM2 affects H3K9me2 and/or transcript levels at hundreds transposons and over 3000 gene loci including 60 NLR genes. In addition, EDM2 also binds to several NLR genes and transposons.
