1.1. Discovery of the Phospholipase A2 Superfamily Phospholipases represent one of the
earliest enzyme activities to be identified and studied, and the phospholipase A2 (PLA2) …

Chromatin regulation is essential to regulate genes and genome activities. In plants, the
alteration of histone modification and DNA methylation are coordinated with changes in the …

Epigenetic marks are reprogrammed in the gametes to reset genomic potential in the next
generation. In mammals, paternal chromatin is extensively reprogrammed through the …

Gene expression driven by developmental and stress cues often depends on nucleosome
histone post-translational modifications and sometimes on DNA methylation. A number of …

Histone methylation plays a fundamental role in regulating diverse developmental
processes and is also involved in silencing repetitive sequences in order to maintain …

Histone Modifications Form Epigenetic Regulatory Networks to Regulate Abiotic Stress
Response1 [OPEN] | Plant Physiology | Oxford Academic Skip to Main Content Advertisement …

How different intrinsic sequence variations and regulatory modifications of histones combine
in nucleosomes remain unclear. To test the importance of histone variants in the …

In their struggle for life, plants can employ sophisticated strategies to defend themselves
against potentially harmful pathogens and insects. One mechanism by which plants can …

Background Post-translational modifications of histones play important roles in maintaining
normal transcription patterns by directly or indirectly affecting the structural properties of the …

The ability of plants to cope with abiotic environmental stresses such as drought, salinity,
heat, cold or flooding relies on flexible mechanisms for re-programming gene expression …
