Ribonucleic acid‐mediated transcriptional gene silencing (known as RNA‐directed DNA
methylation, or Rd DM, in A rabidopsis thaliana) is important for influencing gene expression …

DNA methylation is an epigenetic modification associated with gene silencing. In
Arabidopsis, DNA methylation is established by DOMAINS REARRANGED …

RNA-directed DNA methylation, which is one of several RNAi-mediated pathways in the
nucleus, has been highly elaborated in the plant kingdom. RNA-directed DNA methylation …

Plants use 24-nucleotide small interfering RNAs (24-nt siRNAs) and long non-coding RNAs
(lncRNAs) to direct de novo DNA methylation and transcriptional gene silencing. This …

Transcriptional gene silencing controls transposons and other repetitive elements through
RNA‐directed DNA methylation (R d DM) and heterochromatin formation. A key component …

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 …

ABSTRACT RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM) is responsible for transcriptional
silencing of endogenous transposable elements and introduced transgenes. This process …

RNA-directed DNA methylation is a small RNA-mediated epigenetic modification that
contributes to transcriptional silencing of transposons and repetitive sequences in plants …

RDM1 (RNA-DIRECTED DNA METHYLATION1) is a small plant-specific protein required for
RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM). RDM1 interacts with RNA polymerase II (Pol II) …

DRD1 is a SWI/SNF‐like protein that cooperates with a plant‐specific RNA polymerase, Pol
IVb, to facilitate RNA‐directed de novo methylation and silencing of homologous DNA …
