RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM) is a biological process in which non-coding RNA
molecules direct the addition of DNA methylation to specific DNA sequences. The RdDM …

RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM) is the major small RNA-mediated epigenetic
pathway in plants. RdDM requires a specialized transcriptional machinery that comprises …

RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM) is an epigenetic process in plants that involves both
short and long noncoding RNAs. The generation of these RNAs and the induction of RdDM …

RNA-directed DNA methylation contributes substantially to epigenetic regulation of the plant
genome. Methylation is guided to homologous DNA target sequences by 24nt …

RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM) is a conserved mechanism for epigenetic silencing
of transposons and other repetitive elements. We report that the rdm4 (RNA-directed DNA …

DNA methylation is an important epigenetic mechanism for silencing transposons and other
repetitive elements, and for stable repression of specific transgenes and endogenous …

DNA methylation is a conserved modification that must be precisely regulated during
development to facilitate its roles in silencing transposable elements and regulating gene …

RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM) is a nuclear process in which small interfering RNAs
(siRNAs) direct the cytosine methylation of DNA sequences that are complementary to the …

At least three pathways control maintenance of DNA cytosine methylation in Arabidopsis
thaliana. However, the RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM) pathway is solely …

De novo DNA methylation through the RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM) pathway and
active DNA demethylation play important roles in controlling genome-wide DNA methylation …
