Eukaryotic genomes are heavily regulated by epigenetic marks that often act to modulate the transcriptional control of genetic elements. In Arabidopsis thaliana the ATXR5 and ATXR6 histone methyltransferases, and their cognate H3K27 monomethylation mark, act in transcriptional silencing while also m...
Uranium is metal that appears more and more as a soil contaminant, on the one hand because of the increased extraction of uranium worldwide for nuclear energy production, and on the other hand as a contaminant of phosphate fertilizers. Uranium is known to alter plant physiology, but the molecular ac...
We report the H3K27 trimethylation profiles in Arabidospsis wild type and clf mutant plants before and after high humidity treatment. We find that many genes display a different H3-lysine 27 trimethylation level in the clf mutant plant compared to Col-0 plant. In addition, high humidity also influen...
