Long-range control of gene expression via RNA-directed DNA methylation.

Long-range control of gene expression via RNA-directed DNA methylation.

RNA-mediated transcriptional silencing, in plants known as RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM), is a conserved process where small interfering RNA (siRNA) and long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) help establish repressive chromatin modifications. This process represses transposons and affects the expression...
