Ectopic targeting of CG DNA methylation in Arabidopsis with the bacterial SssI methyltransferase

Ectopic targeting of CG DNA methylation in Arabidopsis with the bacterial SssI methyltransferase

The ability to target DNA methylation to specific loci is important for both basic and applied research. Here, the authors fuse CG-specific methyltransferase SssI with an artificial zinc finger protein for DNA methylation targeting and show the chromatin features favorable for efficient gain of meth...
