Transcriptional regulation of Arabidopsis LEAFY COTYLEDON2 involves RLE, a cis-element that regulates trimethylation of histone H3 at lysine-27.
LEAFY COTYLEDON2 (LEC2) is a master regulator of seed development in Arabidopsis thaliana. In vegetative organs, LEC2 expression is negatively regulated by Polycomb Repressive Complex2 (PRC2) that catalyzes histone H3 Lys 27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) and plays a crucial role in developmental phase transitions. To characterize the cis-regulatory elements involved in the transcriptional regulatio...
متن کاملThe CHD3 remodeler PICKLE associates with genes enriched for trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 27.
In Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), the ATP-dependent chromatin remodeler PICKLE (PKL) determines expression of genes associated with developmental identity. PKL promotes the epigenetic mark trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27me3) that facilitates repression of tissue-specific genes in plants. It has previously been proposed that PKL acts indirectly to promote H3K27me3 by promoting...

متن کاملDistinct regulation of histone H3 methylation at lysines 27 and 9 by CpG methylation in Arabidopsis.
Transcriptional activity and structure of chromatin are correlated with patterns of covalent DNA and histone modification. Previous studies have revealed that high levels of histone H3 dimethylation at lysine 9 (H3K9me2), characteristic of transcriptionally silent heterochromatin in Arabidopsis, require hypermethylation of DNA at CpG sites. Here, we report that CpG hypermethylation characterist...
متن کاملWhole-Genome Analysis of Histone H3 Lysine 27 Trimethylation in Arabidopsis
Trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27me3) plays critical roles in regulating animal development, and in several cases, H3K27me3 is also required for the proper expression of developmentally important genes in plants. However, the extent to which H3K27me3 regulates plant genes on a genome-wide scale remains unknown. In addition, it is not clear whether the establishment and spreading of ...
