Regulatory mechanism of a heat-activated retrotransposon by DDR complex in Arabidopsis thaliana
Abstract
The RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM) pathway plays an essential role in the transposon silencing mechanism; the DDR complex, consisting of DRD1, DMS3, and RDM1, is an essential component of the RdDM pathway. ONSEN, identified in Arabidopsis, is a retrotransposon activated by heat stress at 37°C; however, studies on the regulation of ONSEN are limited. In this study, we analyzed the regulation of ONSEN activity by the DDR complex in Arabidopsis. We elucidated…..
