Histone modifications and dynamic regulation of genome accessibility in plants

Open access
Pfluger, Jennifer, Wagner, Doris·2007·Current Opinion in Plant Biology

Abstract

In all eukaryotes chromatin physically restricts the accessibility of the genome to regulatory proteins such as transcription factors. Plant model systems have been instrumental in demonstrating that this restriction is dynamic and changes during development and in response to exogenous cues. Among the multiple epigenetic mechanisms that alter chromatin to regulate gene expression, histone modifications play a major role. Recent studies in Arabidopsis have provided the first genome-wide histone modification maps, revealed important biological roles for histone modifications, and advanced our understanding of stimulus-dependent changes in histone modifications.

  • In the Arabidopsis genome, histone modifications such as H2BK143 ubiquitination, H3K4/H3K36/H3 methylation, and H3/H4 lysine acetylation are associated with gene activation, while H3K9/H3K27/H4K20 methylation and H4R3 dimethylation are associated with gene inactivation.

    “For example, it is well known that modifications such as the ubiquitination of H2BK143, mono-, di-, and trimethylation of H3K4, H3K36, and H3 and H4 lysine acetylation are associated, in Arabidopsis genome, with gene activation, while the mono-, di- and trimethylation of H3H9, H3K27, and H4K20, and the dimethylation of H4R3, are associated with gene inactivation [90,91,92,93]).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
